NAME

6       smbtree - A text based smb network browser
7

SYNOPSIS

9       smbtree [-b] [-D] [-S]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       This tool is part of the samba(7) suite.
13
14       smbtree is a smb browser program in text mode. It is similar to the
15       "Network Neighborhood" found on Windows computers. It prints a tree
16       with all the known domains, the servers in those domains and the shares
17       on the servers.
18

OPTIONS

20       -b|--broadcast
21           Query network nodes by sending requests as broadcasts instead of
22           querying the local master browser.
23
24       -D|--domains
25           Only print a list of all the domains known on broadcast or by the
26           master browser
27
28       -S|--servers
29           Only print a list of all the domains and servers responding on
30           broadcast or known by the master browser.
31
32       -d|--debuglevel=level
33           level is an integer from 0 to 10. The default value if this
34           parameter is not specified is 0.
35
36           The higher this value, the more detail will be logged to the log
37           files about the activities of the server. At level 0, only critical
38           errors and serious warnings will be logged. Level 1 is a reasonable
39           level for day-to-day running - it generates a small amount of
40           information about operations carried out.
41
42           Levels above 1 will generate considerable amounts of log data, and
43           should only be used when investigating a problem. Levels above 3
44           are designed for use only by developers and generate HUGE amounts
45           of log data, most of which is extremely cryptic.
46
47           Note that specifying this parameter here will override the log
48           level parameter in the smb.conf file.
49
50       -V|--version
51           Prints the program version number.
52
53       -s|--configfile=<configuration file>
54           The file specified contains the configuration details required by
55           the server. The information in this file includes server-specific
56           information such as what printcap file to use, as well as
57           descriptions of all the services that the server is to provide. See
58           smb.conf for more information. The default configuration file name
59           is determined at compile time.
60
61       -l|--log-basename=logdirectory
62           Base directory name for log/debug files. The extension ".progname"
63           will be appended (e.g. log.smbclient, log.smbd, etc...). The log
64           file is never removed by the client.
65
66       --option=<name>=<value>
67           Set the smb.conf(5) option "<name>" to value "<value>" from the
68           command line. This overrides compiled-in defaults and options read
69           from the configuration file.
70
71       -N|--no-pass
72           If specified, this parameter suppresses the normal password prompt
73           from the client to the user. This is useful when accessing a
74           service that does not require a password.
75
76           Unless a password is specified on the command line or this
77           parameter is specified, the client will request a password.
78
79           If a password is specified on the command line and this option is
80           also defined the password on the command line will be silently
81           ingnored and no password will be used.
82
83       -k|--kerberos
84           Try to authenticate with kerberos. Only useful in an Active
85           Directory environment.
86
87       -C|--use-ccache
88           Try to use the credentials cached by winbind.
89
90       -A|--authentication-file=filename
91           This option allows you to specify a file from which to read the
92           username and password used in the connection. The format of the
93           file is
94
95               username = <value>
96               password = <value>
97               domain   = <value>
98
99           Make certain that the permissions on the file restrict access from
100           unwanted users.
101
102       -U|--user=username[%password]
103           Sets the SMB username or username and password.
104
105           If %password is not specified, the user will be prompted. The
106           client will first check the USER environment variable, then the
107           LOGNAME variable and if either exists, the string is uppercased. If
108           these environmental variables are not found, the username GUEST is
109           used.
110
111           A third option is to use a credentials file which contains the
112           plaintext of the username and password. This option is mainly
113           provided for scripts where the admin does not wish to pass the
114           credentials on the command line or via environment variables. If
115           this method is used, make certain that the permissions on the file
116           restrict access from unwanted users. See the -A for more details.
117
118           Be cautious about including passwords in scripts. Also, on many
119           systems the command line of a running process may be seen via the
120           ps command. To be safe always allow rpcclient to prompt for a
121           password and type it in directly.
122
123       -S|--signing on|off|required
124           Set the client signing state.
125
126       -P|--machine-pass
127           Use stored machine account password.
128
129       -e|--encrypt
130           This command line parameter requires the remote server support the
131           UNIX extensions or that the SMB3 protocol has been selected.
132           Requests that the connection be encrypted. Negotiates SMB
133           encryption using either SMB3 or POSIX extensions via GSSAPI. Uses
134           the given credentials for the encryption negotiation (either
135           kerberos or NTLMv1/v2 if given domain/username/password triple.
136           Fails the connection if encryption cannot be negotiated.
137
138       --pw-nt-hash
139           The supplied password is the NT hash.
140
141       -?|--help
142           Print a summary of command line options.
143
144       --usage
145           Display brief usage message.
