Here's what I tried, and what I got:

# smbclient --ip-address xx.xx.xxx.xx --user myuser //myserver/myshare
timeout connecting to xx.x.xxx.xx:445
timeout connecting to xx.x.xxx.xx:139
Error connecting to xx.x.xxx.xx (Operation already in progress)
Connection to myserver failed

I tried this first with,  and then without, the VPN (pptp) connection 
running, and got the same result.
