Note 1: Windows security isn't that tight. (Altough it got a bit better with 
the AD.)

Note 2: If you don't want the password in the config (that can only be seen by 
an authorized user and should only run on apache with ssh or inside a trusted 
environment), you might want to read the man-pages of smbclient, specially the 
parts about storing the passwords in secure files with tight ownership.

Have fun,

Arnold
