bug#27991: 26.0.50; TRAMP on OSX to Windows: smbclient not available

[James Nguyen]

This might be a duplicate bug report:

I'm trying to use TRAMP from OSX and it looks like smbclient is not available
anymore.

I tried using 'smbutil' instead and it doesn't seem to be a one to one match.

(setq tramp-smb-program "smbutil")

Here are just some errors,

/usr/bin/smbutil: illegal option -- g
smbutil: invalid option ?

usage: smbutil [-hv] subcommand [args]
where subcommands are:
 help           display help on specified subcommand
 lookup         resolve NetBIOS name to IP address
 status         resolve IP address or DNS name to NetBIOS names
 view           list resources on specified host
 dfs            list DFS referrals
 identity       identity of the user as known by the specified host
 statshares     list the attributes of mounted share(s)


Process *tramp/smb name@host* exited abnormally with code 1
