This is a wrapper that works by running the "smbclient" subprocess and providing
an API similar to the one provided by python os module.
It is an ugly hack, but it is here for anyone that finds it useful.
The programmer before me was using a "bash" file with lots of smbclient calls,
so I think my solution is at least better.
>>> smb = smbclient.SambaClient(server="MYSERVER", share="MYSHARE",
username='foo', password='bar', domain='baz')
>>> print smb.listdir("/")
[u'file1.txt', u'file2.txt']
>>> f = smb.open('/file1.txt')
>>> data = f.read()
>>> f.close()
>>> smb.rename(u'/file1.txt', u'/file1.old')import smbclient
smb = smbclient.SambaClient(server, share, username=None, password=None,
domain=None, resolve_order=None, port=None, ip=None,
terminal_code=None, buffer_size=None,
debug_level=None, config_file=None, logdir=None,
netbios_name=None, kerberos=False)If you want to use kerberos authentication just use the argument
kerberos=True and you don't need to pass username and password.
chmod(path, *modes)
