hi all-- i've been ghosting this list for a few months now, hoping that i might read an answer to my question without having to step up and ask, but now i'm guessing that this won't be the case, so here goes...
i'd like to write an application in C that does something along the lines of crawling a local area network, finding smb sharing computers and enumerating shares. the closest things i've been able to find to a starting point are LinNeighborhood and xsmbrowser. the former relies on smbmount and smbfs (which i'd like to avoid for portability issues), and the latter appears to be a tcl/tk wrapper around smbclient. i suppose i could just write this as a perl script, but i'd much rather keep it in the mother tongue if i could... i've also taken a peek at libsmbclient, and browsed much of the other source code, and haven't had much luck with getting things rolling, apart from just taking a full copy of the samba source and hacking away at the client until it does what i want it to. is there something i've missed? thanks for your time --sean
