I have seen both in Open SUSE (10.2) and Fedora Core 8. I do not see a  
smbprint binary (just a shell script). I downloaded the Samba sources  
just now. Should I just search for the above string and see what I get  
instead? And if it makes sense, build Samba from source and use that  
smbprint (hopefully, this creates a binary).

I am trying to do this also parallely. Will let you know how it goes.
