NAME

       smbstatus - report on current Samba connections

SYNOPSIS

       smbstatus [-P] [-b] [-d <debug level>] [-v] [-L] [-B] [-p] [-S] [-s <configuration file>] [-u <username>]

DESCRIPTION

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

       smbstatus is a very simple program to list the current Samba connections.

OPTIONS

       -P|--profile
	   If samba has been compiled with the profiling option, print only the contents of the profiling shared memory area.

       -b|--brief
	   gives brief output.

       -d|--debuglevel=level
	   level is an integer from 0 to 10. The default value if this parameter is not specified is 0.

	   The higher this value, the more detail will be logged to the log files about the activities of the server. At level 0, only critical
	   errors and serious warnings will be logged. Level 1 is a reasonable level for day-to-day running - it generates a small amount of
	   information about operations carried out.

	   Levels above 1 will generate considerable amounts of log data, and should only be used when investigating a problem. Levels above 3 are
	   designed for use only by developers and generate HUGE amounts of log data, most of which is extremely cryptic.

	   Note that specifying this parameter here will override the log level parameter in the smb.conf file.

       -V
	   Prints the program version number.

       -s <configuration file>
	   The file specified contains the configuration details required by the server. The information in this file includes server-specific
	   information such as what printcap file to use, as well as descriptions of all the services that the server is to provide. See smb.conf
	   for more information. The default configuration file name is determined at compile time.

       -l|--log-basename=logdirectory
	   Base directory name for log/debug files. The extension ".progname" will be appended (e.g. log.smbclient, log.smbd, etc...). The log
	   file is never removed by the client.

       -v|--verbose
	   gives verbose output.

       -L|--locks
	   causes smbstatus to only list locks.

       -B|--byterange
	   causes smbstatus to include byte range locks.

       -p|--processes
	   print a list of smbd(1M) processes and exit. Useful for scripting.

       -S|--shares
	   causes smbstatus to only list shares.

       -h|--help
	   Print a summary of command line options.

       -u|--user=<username>
	   selects information relevant to username only.

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 original Samba man pages were written by Karl Auer. The man page sources were converted to YODL format (another excellent piece of Open
       Source software, available at ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/) and updated for the Samba 2.0 release by Jeremy Allison. The conversion to
       DocBook for Samba 2.2 was done by Gerald Carter. The conversion to DocBook XML 4.2 for Samba 3.0 was done by Alexander Bokovoy.

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.
