download samba file from command line (where is smbget in samba4?)

In samba3 there was a tool called: smbget
I can't see it in recent samba4
Code: 
pkg_info | grep samba
samba34-libsmbclient-3.4.9 Shared libs from the samba package
samba4-devel-4.0.0.a11_1 A free SMB and CIFS client and server for UNIX

Some of my scripts rely on that command.

I can't install samba3, because there is conflict with samba4, which is dependent by other package.

Question:
How I can back to smbget or which alternative command line I could use instead?
 
Code: 
> grep smbget /usr/ports/net/*/pkg-plist
/usr/ports/net/samba34/pkg-plist:bin/smbget
/usr/ports/net/samba35/pkg-plist:bin/smbget
 
Remove samba4. Recompile the parts of Gnome that depend on it (turn MAPI support off). Then you can safely install and use samba34.
 
Do you know why it was removed from samba4? Why removing good and common used things in the new version?
 
I don't want to downgrade my packages and compile the gnome by removing dependencies, only because somebody decided to remove some simple binary.
I want to follow the new version and find the proper solution.

Probably this is the one:
Code: 
> man smbclient
No manual entry for smbclient
> smbclient smb://192.168.20.40/public/dbsdrop/doc-incoming/doc-01.sql.gz
Connection to \\(null)\smb:\\192.168.20.40\public\dbsdrop\doc-incoming\doc-01.sql.gz failed - NT_STATUS_NO_MEMORY
But it would be good when it will work user-friendly way.
 
Found it:)

Samba4
Code: 
> smbclient -N -d2 //192.168.20.40/public -c "cd dbsdrop/doc-incoming; get doc-01.sql.gz"
added interface ip=192.168.14.38 nmask=255.255.255.0
added interface ip=192.168.14.38 nmask=255.255.255.0
getting file \dbsdrop\doc-incoming\doc-01.sql.gz of size 63849525 as doc-01.sql.gz (7329.6 kb/s) (average 7329.6 kb/s)

Samba3:
Code: 
smbget -a "smb://192.168.20.40/public/dbsdrop/doc-incoming/doc-01.sql.gz"

Sorry, but for me it's the most stupid thing that somebody changed into "better" in the new version;/
