I then get this output:
cli_negprot: SMB signing is mandatory and we have disabled it.

Is there possibly security settings I have to set in my Windows Domain
(Group Policies)?

A search on the web revealed that the smbclient doesn't support SMB signing
which is a default requirement on 2003 server domains.

Any help will be appreciated,

Correct, in Windows 2003 AD domains SMB signing is enabled by default.

If you want to disable it, you should change into your Domain Default Policy
"Microsoft network server: Digitally sign communications (always) Policy Setting:" from enabled to disabled. Probably you need to reboot your DCs after the change.
