DESCRIPTION

       This tool is part of the samba(7) suite.

       smbget is a simple utility with wget-like semantics, that can download files from SMB servers. You can specify the files you would like to
       download on the command-line.

       The files should be in the smb-URL standard, e.g. use smb://host/share/file for the UNC path \\HOST\SHARE\file.

OPTIONS

       -a, --guest
	   Work as user guest

       -r, --resume
	   Automatically resume aborted files

       -R, --recursive
	   Recursively download files

       -u, --username=STRING
	   Username to use

       -p, --password=STRING
	   Password to use

       -w, --workgroup=STRING
	   Workgroup to use (optional)

       -n, --nonprompt
	   Don't ask anything (non-interactive)

       -d, --debuglevel=INT
	   Debuglevel to use

       -D, --dots
	   Show dots as progress indication

       -P, --keep-permissions
	   Set same permissions on local file as are set on remote file.

       -o, --outputfile
	   Write the file that is being download to the specified file. Can not be used together with -R.

       -f, --rcfile
	   Use specified rcfile. This will be loaded in the order it was specified - e.g. if you specify any options before this one, they might
	   get overriden by the contents of the rcfile.

       -q, --quiet
	   Be quiet

       -v, --verbose
	   Be verbose

       -b, --blocksize

       --usage
	   Display brief usage message

SMB URLS

       SMB URL's should be specified in the following format:

	   smb://[[[domain;]user[:password@]]server[/share[/path[/file]]]]

	   smb:// means all the workgroups

	   smb://name/ means, if name is a workgroup, all the servers in this workgroup, or if name is a server, all the shares on this server.

EXAMPLES

	   # Recursively download 'src' directory
	   smbget -R smb://rhonwyn/jelmer/src
	   # Download FreeBSD ISO and enable resuming
	   smbget -r smb://rhonwyn/isos/FreeBSD5.1.iso
	   # Recursively download all ISOs
	   smbget -Rr smb://rhonwyn/isos
	   # Backup my data on rhonwyn
	   smbget -Rr smb://rhonwyn/

BUGS

       Permission denied is returned in some cases where the cause of the error is unknown (such as an illegally formatted smb:// url or trying to
       get a directory without -R turned on).

VERSION

       This man page is correct for version 3.0 of the Samba suite.

AUTHOR

       The original Samba software and related utilities were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed by the Samba Team as an Open
       Source project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed.

       The smbget manpage was written by Jelmer Vernooij.

NOTES

       Source for Samba is available on http://opensolaris.org.

       Samba(7) delivers the set of four SMF(5) services as can be seen from the following example:

	    $ svcs samba wins winbind swat
	   STATE	  STIME    FMRI
	   disabled	  Apr_21   svc:/network/samba:default
	   disabled	  Apr_21   svc:/network/winbind:default
	   disabled	  Apr_21   svc:/network/wins:default
	   disabled	  Apr_21   svc:/network/swat:default

       where the services are:

	"samba"
	   runs the smbd daemon managing the CIFS sessions

	"wins"
	   runs the nmbd daemon enabling the browsing (WINS)

	"winbind"
	   runs the winbindd daemon making the domain idmap

	"swat"
	   Samba Web Administration Tool is a service providing access to browser-based Samba administration interface and on-line documentation.
	   The service runs on software loopback network interface on port 901/tcp, i.e. opening "http://localhost:901/" in browser will access
	   the SWAT service on local machine.

       Please note: SWAT uses HTTP Basic Authentication scheme where user name and passwords are sent over the network in clear text. In the SWAT
       case the user name is root. Transferring such sensitive data is advisable only on the software loopback network interface or over secure
       networks.
