NAME

     smbutil -- interface to the SMB requester

SYNOPSIS

     smbutil [-hv] command [-options] [args]

DESCRIPTION

     The smbutil command is used to control SMB requester and issue various commands.

     There are two types of options -- global and local to the specified command.

     Global options are as follows:

     -h      Print a short help message.

     -v      Verbose output.

     The commands and local options are:

     crypt [password]
	     Encrypt clear text password for use in the ~/.nsmbrc file.  The encrypted password starts with the '$$1' symbols.	Warning: the
	     encryption function is very weak and intended only to hide clear text password.  If password is omitted from the command line,
	     smbutil will prompt for one.

     help command
	     Print usage information about command.

     lc      List active connections and their parameters.

     login [-connection_options] //user@server[/share]
	     Login/attach to the specified server and/or share as user.  This command will create and authenticate connection to an SMB server,
	     and will leave it active after exit.  Thus, it is possible to login only once and then use other SMB commands without authentication
	     procedure and additional connections.  For the description of -connection_options refer to the mount_smbfs(8) manpage (all uppercase
	     options are connection options).

     logout //user@server[/share]
	     Logout/detach from the specified server and/or share as user.  This command will destroy a connection created by the login command.
	     A connection may not be closed immediately if it is used by other programs.

     lookup [-w host] name
	     Resolve the given name to an IP address.  The NetBIOS name server can be directly specified via the -w option.

     print [-connection_options] //user@server/share file
	     Send the given file to the specified queue on the remote server.  If file is -, then standard input will be used.

     view [-connection_options] //user@server
	     List resources available on the specified server for the user user.

FILES

     ~/.nsmbrc	Keeps description for each connection.	See ./examples/dot.nsmbrc for details.

MOUNT_SMBFS(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 					    MOUNT_SMBFS(8)

NAME

     mount_smbfs -- mounts a shared resource from an SMB file server

SYNOPSIS

     mount_smbfs [-I host] [-M cmode[/smode]] [-N] [-O cowner[:cgroup]/sowner[:sgroup]] [-R retrycount] [-T timeout] [-U user] [-W workgroup]
		 [-d mode] [-f mode] [-g gid] [-h] [-n opt] [-u uid] //[workgroup;][user[password]@] server[/share] path

DESCRIPTION

     The mount_smbfs command mounts a share from a remote server using SMB/CIFS protocol.

     The options are:

     -I host
	     Do not use NetBIOS name resolver and connect directly to host, which can be either a valid DNS name or an IP address.

     -M cmode[/smode]
	     Assign access rights to the newly created connection.

     -N      Do not ask for a password.  At run time, mount_smbfs reads the ~/.nsmbrc file for additional configuration parameters and a password.
	     If no password is found the mount_smbfs prompts for it.

     -O cowner[:cgroup]/sowner[:sgroup]
	     Assign owner/group attributes to the newly created connection.

     -R retrycount
	     How many retries should be done before the SMB requester decides to drop the connection.

     -T timeout
	     Timeout in seconds for each request.

     -U user
	     Specifies the user name to be used in the authentication request.

     -W workgroup
	     Specifies the workgroup to be used in the authentication request.

     -f mode, -d mode
	     Specify permissions that should be assigned to files and directories.  The values must be specified as octal numbers.  Default value
	     for the file mode is taken from mount point, default value for the dir mode adds execute permission where the file mode gives read
	     permission.

	     Note that these permissions can differ from the rights granted by SMB server.

     -h      Prints a help message, much like the SYNOPSIS above.

     -n opt  Set opt option to affect file name lookups.  opt can be one of the following:

	     Value    Meaning

	     long     No long names.  Server supports only "8.3" format.

     -u uid, -g gid
	     User id and group id assigned to files.  The default is owner and group id from directory where the volume is mounted.

     //[workgroup;][user[password]@] server[/share]
	     The mount_smbfs command will use server as the NetBIOS name of remote computer, user as the remote user name and share as the
	     resource name on a remote server.	Workgroup and/or password may be specified here.  If user is omitted the logged in user id will be
	     used.  Omitting share is an error when mount_smbfs is run from the command line, otherwise a browsing dialogue is presented.

     path    Path to mount point.

FILES

     ~/.nsmbrc	    Keeps static parameters for connections and other information.  See ./examples/dot.nsmbrc for details.

EXAMPLES

     The following illustrate how to connect to an SMB server SAMBA as user GUEST to mount PUBLIC:

	   mount_smbfs -I samba.mydomain.com //guest@samba/public /smb/public

     Please report bugs to Apple.
