I could change the parameter name, so you can do "--script-args

I like this just fine.  It would also be nice to be able to pass the
credentials in a file like what smbmount can take.

Speaking of that, I was sort of wondering if it'd be possible (or a good
idea) to automatically use the credentials of the current machine (the
sid2user/user2sid programs, for example, do that). So it'll
automatically try to authenticate as the current user, if possible.

The advantage is that, if you're a member of a domain, you can basically
scan any system on the domain without giving credentials.

The downside is it's pretty sketchy, in my mind, reading a user's
privateish data and automatically sending hashes (although Windows will
do that anyways for mounting drives/authentication to Web sites/etc. :) ).

But yeah, that's just a passing thought. I don't plan on doing it, just
putting the idea out there.
