	[ML]  Nothing is wrong, it is just the shell command line
parsing artefact.  You should quote them.

	smbclient "\\\\machine with spaces\\share with spaces"

	the shell then interprets that as one word and passes it as such
to the smbclient.

	The same applies to any other unix command:
	vi "filename with spaces in it"
	etc.
