Samba Script not completing

Won't work as a batch file, smbclient is working correctly you need to
be running an expect script that feed smbclient until done(man expect is
your friend). Another option would be to mount the share (using
"smbmount" or "mount -t smbfs") and then just use cp to put files on the
share and then unmount it.

Cheers,
