I ran into this setting up a server on fedora FC6 (and it reminded me 
why I usually stick to Centos...).   I thought I saw something more 
definitive about the issue than the email here, like it was something 
that changed in smbclient argument parsing but I can't find it now.

In my setup, debugging was complicated a bit by the fact that I have a 
domain and password server set up in my /etc/samba/smb.conf file that I 
want to be used by samba as a server on the same machine.  However, 
smbclient also picks these up and will fail authentication against local 
accounts on the target machines unless pointed to a different config 
file with the -s option.
