If I use:

Which is fine and dandy. BUT if I issue the same command using the
IP address
instead of the host name:
smbclient -L //192.168.1.25 -U User
I get the same as before but with the extra lines:
session request to 192.168.1.25 failed (Called name not present)
session request to 192 failed (Called name not present)
The name you called the server "192.168.1.25" is not present in the
list of NETBIOS names for that host. If you read the documentation,
you can see that '-L' is supposed to be followed by the NETBIOS name
of the host. If you want to specify the IP to connect to, use '-I'.
