it seems to be that the path \home\staff\fran is invalid
on the target server.  Can you verify that the full
directory path does in fact exist ?

Yep, it is definitely there. I have also made a significant new discovery, the older smbclient 3.0.1 can do the operation no problem:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] /]# smbclient -V
Version 3.0.1
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /]# smbclient \\\\dapper\\dfs password -U Administrator -E -W CISNET -D home\\staff\\fran -d0 -Tqca /tmp/test.tar

[snip rest of errors]

And the even newer 3.0.21b-2 also fails...
