I've gone ahead and added this as a new driver (smbclient), since it's nice to have a non-extension implementation. Also the extension's site is back, and I've updated the link for it.

Are you going to update the patch?

Since some people might still have that extension installed, and the site might come back one day too, I suggest that you make the smbclient parameter optional and still use the smbauth extension (if it is available), it the client is not provided.

It seemed that SMB authentication was broken, and also requires a PHP extension (smbauth) which is not a part of the PHP distro, and is also no longer available from www.tekrat.com (Webserver has been down for more than a week). I have modified the SMB authentication code to work using a local copy of smbclient. Currently, it only allows you to authenticate a connection to the specified domain. If there's any interest, I may modify it in the future to authenticate against specific resources (i.e., user must have at LEAST read privileges of //fileserver/someshare) The attached patch is actually two patches concatenated together. The first is for framework/Auth/Auth/smb.php. The second is for horde/config/conf.xml. Comments and criticism welcome.
