[lug] Samba, Printers, Corel, whatnot

OK. Sadly, the use of SMB as a protocol here is rampit. Naturally, I run a 
Linux desktop, and I have Samba working to the effect that I can mount shares 
_IF_ I know exactly what the path is using the command line tool.

Someone down the hall has Corel Linux, which seems to have a really nice 
Samba set-up automatically and a nifty Samba browser. That, frankly, is what 
I want, as I can't keep track of all the crazy URL'ish like things for this 
file sharing system.

Rather than fiddling with these buggy GTK and KDE browsers any more, I was 
wondering if anyone knew, now that Corel Linux went away, where I can 
download their Samba browser? I looked on their site and couldn't find it, 
but did hear rumors they released it as open source when they ditched Corel 
Linux?
