Thank you very much, I'm quite surprised the messenger service is not
running on the clients of that LAN, but I take it and check ASAP.
However the smbclient manpage is misleading, it says:
"If they are not running WinPopup the message will be lost, and no error
message will occur".
So is this a documentation bug or a bug in smbclient code?
Assuming a documentation bug, I think there's a bug in the code anyway,
because NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME is not the most obvious error message
smbclient could give in that case...
