DESCRIPTION

18       This tool is part of the samba(7) suite.
19
20       smbget is a simple utility with wget-like semantics, that can download
21       files from SMB servers. You can specify the files you would like to
22       download on the command-line.
23
24       The files should be in the smb-URL standard, e.g. use
25       smb://host/share/file for the UNC path \\\\HOST\\SHARE\\file.
