We have been successfully running Win32 port of Samba-TNG client under 
ReactOS.

Hi Filip,
         Thats great news :-), i was thinking that since the networking 
layer was 90% complete, it would not be long be before smb client could 
work.

Is there any plans to create a wrapper for this in ros explorer until the 
wnet system gets implemented, similar to maybe 
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~chadspen/xsmbrowser.html?

Regards

Yes. Samba TNG's smbclient compiles basically out-of-the-box (cvs) and
works. Testing it on an NT5 machine revealed it was quite fast too - IIRC I
got around 70Mbps copying a file from another NT5 running MS' SMB server on
fast ethernet, using even a debug build of smbclient.

There are discussions about creating a filesystem driver for the client, and
to port the server parts too.
