If that works, the normal method should too. I believe there are some
versions of smbclient with bugs in command line parsing that have
trouble with backuppc. It's been mentioned on the list but I've
forgotten the details. Also, smbclient reads your default smb.conf file
even though most of its settings relate to the server so it is possible
to have problems that relate to the password server or similar global
settings there.
