The
smbutil
command is used to control SMB requester and issue various commands.
There are two types of options — global and local to the specified
command.
Global options are as follows:
|
| -h
|
| |
Print a short help message.
|
| -v
|
| |
Verbose output.
|
|
The commands and local options are:
| crypt [password]
|
| |
Encrypt clear text password for use in the
~/.nsmbrc
file.
The encrypted password starts with the
‘$$1’
symbols.
Warning: the encryption function is very weak and intended only to hide
clear text password.
If
password
is omitted from the command line,
smbutil
will prompt for one.
|
| help command
|
| |
Print usage information about
command.
|
| lc
|
List active connections and their parameters.
|
| login
[connection_options]
//user@server[/share]
Login/attach to the specified
server
and/or
share
as
user.
This command will create and authenticate connection to an SMB server, and
will leave it active after exit.
Thus, it is possible to login only once and then
use other SMB commands without authentication procedure and additional
connections.
For the description of
connection_options
refer to the
mount_smbfs(8)
manpage (all uppercase options are connection options).
|
| logout
//user@server[/share]
Logout/detach from the specified
server
and/or
share
as
user.
This command will destroy a connection created by the
login
command.
A connection may not be closed immediately if it is used by other
programs.
|
| lookup
[-w host]
name
Resolve the given
name
to an IP address.
The NetBIOS name server can be directly specified via the
-w
option.
|
| print
[connection_options]
//user@server/share
file
Send the given

to the specified queue on the remote server.
If

then standard input will be used.
|

server
for the user
user.
