findsmb <subnet_broadcast_address>
The findsmb program is a Perl script
which reports information about SMB-aware systems on a specific
subnet. If no subnet is specified the local subnet is used. Items
displayed include IP address, NetBIOS name, workgroup or domain
name, operating system, and version.
The following example shows the output of executing findsmb as any valid user on a system:
findsmb

make_smbcodepage <c|d> <codepage_number> <inputfile>
<outputfile>
The make_smbcodepage program compiles a
binary codepage file from a text-format definition. The reverse is
also allowed by decompiling a binary codepage file to a text-format
definition. This obsolete program is part of the
internationalization features of previous versions of Samba which
are included by default with the current version of Samba.
make_unicodemap <codepage_number> <inputfile>
<outputfile>
The make_unicodemap program compiles
binary Unicode files from text files so Samba can display non-ASCII
charactersets. This obsolete program was part of the
internationalization features of previous versions of Samba which
are now included with the current release of Samba.
net <protocol> <function>
<misc_options> <target_options>
The net utility is similar to the
net utility used for Windows and MS-DOS.
The first argument is used to specify the protocol to use when
executing a command. The <protocol> option can be ads, rap, or rpc for specifying the type of server connection.
Active Directory uses ads, Win9x/NT3 uses
rap, and Windows NT4/2000/2003 uses
rpc. If the protocol is omitted,
net automatically tries to determine
it.
The following example displays a list the available shares for a
host named wakko:
net -l share -S wakko
Password:
Enumerating shared resources (exports) on remote server:
Share name Type Description
---------- ---- -----------
data Disk Wakko data share
tmp Disk Wakko tmp share
IPC$ IPC IPC Service (Samba Server)
ADMIN$ IPC IPC Service (Samba Server)

The following example displays a list of Samba users for a host
named wakko:
net -l user -S wakko

nmblookup <options> <netbios_name>
The nmblookup program resolves NetBIOS
names into IP addresses. The program broadcasts its query on the
local subnet until the target machine replies.
Here is an example:
nmblookup trek
querying trek on 10.1.59.255
10.1.56.45 trek<00>

pdbedit <options>
The pdbedit program manages accounts
located in the SAM database. All backends are supported including
smbpasswd, LDAP, NIS+, and the tdb database library.
The following are examples of adding, deleting, and listing
users:
pdbedit -a kristin

rpcclient <server> <options>
The rpcclient program issues
administrative commands using Microsoft RPCs, which provide access
to the Windows administration graphical user interfaces (GUIs) for
systems management. This is most often used by advanced users that
understand the full complexity of Microsoft RPCs.
smbcacls <//server/share> <filename>
<options>
The smbcacls program modifies Windows
ACLs on files and directories shared by the Samba server.
smbclient <//server/share> <password>
<options>
The smbclient program is a versatile
UNIX client which provides functionality similar to ftp.
smbcontrol -i <options>
smbcontrol <options> <destination>
<messagetype> <parameters>
The smbcontrol program sends control
messages to running smbd or nmbd daemons. Executing smbcontrol -i runs commands interactively until a
blank line or a 'q' is entered.
smbgroupedit <options>
The smbgroupedit program maps between
Linux groups and Windows groups. It also allows a Linux group to be
a domain group.
smbmount <//server/share> <mount_point> <-o
options>
The smbmount program uses the low-level
smbmnt program to mount an smbfs file
system (Samba share). The mount -t smbfs
<//server/share> <mount_point>
<-o options> command also works.
For example:
smbmount //wakko/html /mnt/html -o username=kristin
Password: <password>
[root@yakko /]# ls -l /mnt/html
total 0
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 Jan 29 08:09 index.html
|
smbpasswd <options> <username>
<password>
The smbpasswd program manages encrypted
passwords. This program can be run by a superuser to change any
user's password as well as by an ordinary user to change their own
Samba password.
smbspool <job> <user> <title> <copies>
<options> <filename>
The smbspool program is a
CUPS-compatible printing interface to Samba. Although designed for
use with CUPS printers, smbspool can work
with non-CUPS printers as well.
smbstatus <options>
The smbstatus program displays the
status of current connections to a Samba server.
smbtar <options>
The smbtar program performs backup and
restores of Windows-based share files and directories to a local
tape archive. Though similar to the tar
command, the two are not compatible.
testparm <options> <filename> <hostname
IP_address>
The testparm program checks the syntax
of the smb.conf file. If your smb.conf file is in the default location
(/etc/samba/smb.conf) you do not need to
specify the location. Specifying the hostname and IP address to the
testparm program verifies that the
hosts.allow and host.deny files are configured correctly. The
testparm program also displays a summary
of your smb.conf file and the server's
role (stand-alone, domain, etc.) after testing. This is convenient
when debugging as it excludes comments and concisely presents
information for experienced administrators to read.
For example:
testparm
Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf
Processing section "[homes]"
Processing section "[printers]"
Processing section "[tmp]"
Processing section "[html]"
Loaded services file OK.
Server role: ROLE_STANDALONE

testprns <printername>
<printcapname>
The testprns program checks if
printername is valid and exists in the
printcap. If the printcapname is not specified, the default specified
in the Samba or printcap configuration
files is used.
wbinfo <options>
The wbinfo program displays information
from the winbindd daemon. The winbindd daemon must be running for wbinfo to work.
