There is an entirely new version of the Unix client called smbwrapper.
Instead of a kernel module that allows Linux to act as a Samba client, there is now a command-line entry to load the library that provides a complete SMB filesystem on some brands of Unix. Once loaded, the command ls /smb will list all the machines in your workgroup, and cd /smb/server_name/share_name will take you to a particular share (shared directory), similar to the Network File System (NFS). As of this writing, smbwrapper currently runs on Linux, Solaris, SunOS 4, IRIX, and OSF/1, and is expected to run on several more operating systems in the near future.
