Hello,

This wrapper class seems very, very useful.
In my specific case I have a Windows box with IIS and a PHP application, which would like to access files on a network share, which is physically on another server.

First I tried to see if a file exists, with
smb://workgroupname;username:password@servername/sharename/filename
then with
smb://username:password@servername/sharename/filename

But, when these attempts did not work out, I finally found out that this class needs the Samba client installed, which seems not to be available for Windows platforms.

Maybe I overlook something.

The question is now; how can we get this class working on a Windows machine?

Any help would be appreciated.

Kind regards,
Nico
