I don't think it is a problem as long as it is just the client side 
stuff.  Redhat does not start smbd server by default.  So it does not 
really bother me, since I see no problem with the client side stuff 
working.  In fact it would bug me if the client side did not work!  

Also, my mozilla will not recognize smb://.
