SYNOPSIS

       smbtorture {//server/share} [-d debuglevel] [-U user%pass] [-k] [-N numprocs] [-n netbios_name] [-W workgroup] [-o num_operations]
		  [-e num files(entries)] [-O socket_options] [-m maximum_protocol] [-L] [-c CLIENT.TXT] [-t timelimit] [-C filename] [-A]
		  [-p port] [-s seed] [-f max_failures] [-X] {BINDING-STRING|UNC} {TEST1} [TEST2] [...]

DESCRIPTION

       smbtorture is a testsuite that runs several tests against a SMB server. All tests are known to succeed against a Windows 2003 server (?).
       Smbtorture's primary goal is finding differences in implementations of the SMB protocol and testing SMB servers.

       Any number of tests can be specified on the command-line. If no tests are specified, all tests are run.

       If no arguments are specified at all, all available options and tests are listed.

   Binding string format
       The binding string format is:

       TRANSPORT:host[flags]

       Where TRANSPORT is either ncacn_np for SMB, ncacn_ip_tcp for RPC/TCP or ncalrpc for local connections.

       'host' is an IP or hostname or netbios name. If the binding string identifies the server side of an endpoint, 'host' may be an empty
       string.

       'flags' can include a SMB pipe name if using the ncacn_np transport or a TCP port number if using the ncacn_ip_tcp transport, otherwise
       they will be auto-determined.

       other recognised flags are:

       sign
	   enable ntlmssp signing

       seal
	   enable ntlmssp sealing

       connect
	   enable rpc connect level auth (auth, but no sign or seal)

       validate
	   enable the NDR validator

       print
	   enable debugging of the packets

       bigendian
	   use bigendian RPC

       padcheck
	   check reply data for non-zero pad bytes

       For example, these all connect to the samr pipe:

       o   ncacn_np:myserver

       o   ncacn_np:myserver[samr]

       o   ncacn_np:myserver[\pipe\samr]

       o   ncacn_np:myserver[/pipe/samr]

       o   ncacn_np:myserver[samr,sign,print]

       o   ncacn_np:myserver[\pipe\samr,sign,seal,bigendian]

       o   ncacn_np:myserver[/pipe/samr,seal,validate]

       o   ncacn_np:

       o   ncacn_np:[/pipe/samr]

       o   ncacn_ip_tcp:myserver

       o   ncacn_ip_tcp:myserver[1024]

       o   ncacn_ip_tcp:myserver[1024,sign,seal]

       o   ncalrpc:

   UNC Format
       The UNC format is:

       //server/share

OPTIONS

       -d debuglevel
	   Use the specified Samba debug level. A higher debug level means more output.

       -U user%pass
	   Use the specified username/password combination when logging in to a remote server.

       -k
	   Use kerberos when authenticating.

       -W workgroup
	   Use specified name as our workgroup name.

       -n netbios_name
	   Use specified name as our NetBIOS name.

       -O socket_options
	   Use specified socket options, equivalent of the smb.conf option "socket options". See the smb.conf(5) manpage for details.

       -m max_protocol
	   Specify the maximum SMB dialect that should be used. Possible values are: CORE, COREPLUS, LANMAN1, LANMAN2, NT1

       -s seed
	   Initialize the randomizer using seed as seed.

       -L
	   Use oplocks.

       -X
	   Enable dangerous tests. Use with care! This might crash your server...

       -t timelimit
	   Specify the NBENCH time limit in seconds. Defaults to 600.

       -p ports
	   Specify ports to connect to.

       -c file
	   Read NBENCH commands from file instead of from CLIENT.TXT.

       -A
	   Show not just OK or FAILED but more detailed output. Used only by DENY test at the moment.

       -C filename
	   Load a list of UNC names from the specified filename. Smbtorture instances will connect to a random host from this list.

       -N numprocs
	   Specify number of smbtorture processes to launch.

       -o num_operations
	   Number of times some operations should be tried before assuming they're output is consistent (default:100).

       -e num_files
	   Number of entries to use in certain tests (such as creating X files) (default: 1000).

       -f max_failures
	   Number of failures before aborting a test (default: 1).
