30.SH "NAME"
31smbtree \- A text based smb network browser
32.SH "SYNOPSIS"
33.HP \w'\ 'u
34smbtree [\-b] [\-D] [\-S]
35.SH "DESCRIPTION"
36.PP
37This tool is part of the
38\fBsamba\fR(7)
39suite\&.
40.PP
41smbtree
42is a smb browser program in text mode\&. It is similar to the "Network Neighborhood" found on Windows computers\&. It prints a tree with all the known domains, the servers in those domains and the shares on the servers\&.
43.SH "OPTIONS"
44.PP
45\-b|\-\-broadcast
46.RS 4
47Query network nodes by sending requests as broadcasts instead of querying the local master browser\&.
48.RE
49.PP
50\-D|\-\-domains
51.RS 4
52Only print a list of all the domains known on broadcast or by the master browser
53.RE
54.PP
55\-S|\-\-servers
56.RS 4
57Only print a list of all the domains and servers responding on broadcast or known by the master browser\&.
58.RE
59.PP
60\-d|\-\-debuglevel=level
61.RS 4
62\fIlevel\fR
63is an integer from 0 to 10\&. The default value if this parameter is not specified is 0\&.
64.sp
65The higher this value, the more detail will be logged to the log files about the activities of the server\&. At level 0, only critical errors and serious warnings will be logged\&. Level 1 is a reasonable level for day\-to\-day running \- it generates a small amount of information about operations carried out\&.
66.sp
67Levels above 1 will generate considerable amounts of log data, and should only be used when investigating a problem\&. Levels above 3 are designed for use only by developers and generate HUGE amounts of log data, most of which is extremely cryptic\&.
68.sp
69Note that specifying this parameter here will override the
70\m[blue]\fBlog level\fR\m[]
71parameter in the
72smb\&.conf
73file\&.
74.RE
75.PP
76\-V|\-\-version
77.RS 4
78Prints the program version number\&.
79.RE
80.PP
81\-s|\-\-configfile <configuration file>
82.RS 4
83The file specified contains the configuration details required by the server\&. The information in this file includes server\-specific information such as what printcap file to use, as well as descriptions of all the services that the server is to provide\&. See
84smb\&.conf
85for more information\&. The default configuration file name is determined at compile time\&.
86.RE
87.PP
88\-l|\-\-log\-basename=logdirectory
89.RS 4
90Base directory name for log/debug files\&. The extension
91\fB"\&.progname"\fR
92will be appended (e\&.g\&. log\&.smbclient, log\&.smbd, etc\&.\&.\&.)\&. The log file is never removed by the client\&.
93.RE
94.PP
95\-N|\-\-no\-pass
96.RS 4
97If specified, this parameter suppresses the normal password prompt from the client to the user\&. This is useful when accessing a service that does not require a password\&.
98.sp
99Unless a password is specified on the command line or this parameter is specified, the client will request a password\&.
100.sp
101If a password is specified on the command line and this option is also defined the password on the command line will be silently ingnored and no password will be used\&.
102.RE
103.PP
104\-k|\-\-kerberos
105.RS 4
106Try to authenticate with kerberos\&. Only useful in an Active Directory environment\&.
107.RE
108.PP
109\-C|\-\-use\-ccache
110.RS 4
111Try to use the credentials cached by winbind\&.
112.RE
113.PP
114\-A|\-\-authentication\-file=filename
115.RS 4
116This option allows you to specify a file from which to read the username and password used in the connection\&. The format of the file is
117.sp
118.if n \{\
119.RS 4
120.\}
121.nf
122username = <value>
123password = <value>
124domain = <value>
125.fi
126.if n \{\
127.RE
128.\}
129.sp
130Make certain that the permissions on the file restrict access from unwanted users\&.
131.RE
132.PP
133\-U|\-\-user=username[%password]
134.RS 4
135Sets the SMB username or username and password\&.
136.sp
137If %password is not specified, the user will be prompted\&. The client will first check the
138\fBUSER\fR
139environment variable, then the
140\fBLOGNAME\fR
141variable and if either exists, the string is uppercased\&. If these environmental variables are not found, the username
142\fBGUEST\fR
143is used\&.
144.sp
145A third option is to use a credentials file which contains the plaintext of the username and password\&. This option is mainly provided for scripts where the admin does not wish to pass the credentials on the command line or via environment variables\&. If this method is used, make certain that the permissions on the file restrict access from unwanted users\&. See the
146\fI\-A\fR
147for more details\&.
148.sp
149Be cautious about including passwords in scripts\&. Also, on many systems the command line of a running process may be seen via the
150ps
151command\&. To be safe always allow
152rpcclient
153to prompt for a password and type it in directly\&.
154.RE
155.PP
156\-h|\-\-help
157.RS 4
158Print a summary of command line options\&.
159.RE
160.SH "VERSION"
161.PP
162This man page is correct for version 3 of the Samba suite\&.
163.SH "AUTHOR"
164.PP
165The original Samba software and related utilities were created by Andrew Tridgell\&. Samba is now developed by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed\&.
166.PP
167The smbtree man page was written by Jelmer Vernooij\&.
Note: See TracBrowser for help on using the repository browser.
