Anyway to make smbclient show full name of share?

I am working on a script to search over an IP range and find all the available shares on a Windows network. To thoroughly test the software, I wanted to have long final names (e.g. Fun Disk Share Disk Fun!) to see if my code could figure out the name of the share. However this is the output I get when I run

smbclient -L //chemzar -N

Code:

added interface ip=137.99.169.118 bcast=137.99.171.255 nmask=255.255.252.0
Got a positive name query response from 137.99.25.50 ( 137.99.169.118 )
Domain=[UCONN] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 2.2.8]

As you can see the folder has been truncated, which will cause problems with my script. Any suggestions on how to get around this problem (smbmount can mount the directory).

Thanks
