NAME
net - Tool for administration of Samba and remote CIFS servers. SYNOPSIS
net {<ads|rap|rpc>} [-h] [-w workgroup] [-W myworkgroup] [-U user] [-I ip-address] [-p port] [-n myname] [-s conffile] [-S server] [-l] [-P] [-d debuglevel] [-V] DESCRIPTION
This tool is part of the samba(7) suite. The Samba net utility is meant to work just like the net utility available for windows and DOS. The first argument should be used to specify the protocol to use when executing a certain command. ADS is used for ActiveDirectory, RAP is using for old (Win9x/NT3) clients and RPC can be used for NT4 and Windows 2000. If this argument is omitted, net will try to determine it automatically. Not all commands are available on all protocols. OPTIONS
-h|--help Print a summary of command line options. -w target-workgroup Sets target workgroup or domain. You have to specify either this option or the IP address or the name of a server. -W workgroup Sets client workgroup or domain -U user User name to use -I ip-address IP address of target server to use. You have to specify either this option or a target workgroup or a target server. -p port Port on the target server to connect to (usually 139 or 445). Defaults to trying 445 first, then 139. -n <primary NetBIOS name> This option allows you to override the NetBIOS name that Samba uses for itself. This is identical to setting the netbios name parameter in the smb.conf file. However, a command line setting will take precedence over settings in smb.conf. -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. -S server Name of target server. You should specify either this option or a target workgroup or a target IP address. -l When listing data, give more information on each item. -P Make queries to the external server using the machine account of the local server. -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. COMMANDS
CHANGESECRETPW This command allows the Samba machine account password to be set from an external application to a machine account password that has already been stored in Active Directory. DO NOT USE this command unless you know exactly what you are doing. The use of this command requires that the force flag (-f) be used also. There will be NO command prompt. Whatever information is piped into stdin, either by typing at the command line or otherwise, will be stored as the literal machine password. Do NOT use this without care and attention as it will overwrite a legitimate machine password without warning. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. TIME The NET TIME command allows you to view the time on a remote server or synchronise the time on the local server with the time on the remote server. TIME Without any options, the NET TIME command displays the time on the remote server. TIME SYSTEM Displays the time on the remote server in a format ready for /bin/date. TIME SET Tries to set the date and time of the local server to that on the remote server using /bin/date. TIME ZONE Displays the timezone in hours from GMT on the remote computer. [RPC|ADS] JOIN [TYPE] [-U username[%password]] [createupn=UPN] [createcomputer=OU] [options] Join a domain. If the account already exists on the server, and [TYPE] is MEMBER, the machine will attempt to join automatically. (Assuming that the machine has been created in server manager) Otherwise, a password will be prompted for, and a new account may be created. [TYPE] may be PDC, BDC or MEMBER to specify the type of server joining the domain. [UPN] (ADS only) set the principalname attribute during the join. The default format is host/netbiosname@REALM. [OU] (ADS only) Precreate the computer account in a specific OU. The OU string reads from top to bottom without RDNs, and is delimited by a '/'. Please note that '' is used for escape by both the shell and ldap, so it may need to be doubled or quadrupled to pass through, and it is not used as a delimiter. [RPC] OLDJOIN [options] Join a domain. Use the OLDJOIN option to join the domain using the old style of domain joining - you need to create a trust account in server manager first. [RPC|ADS] USER [RPC|ADS] USER List all users [RPC|ADS] USER DELETE target Delete specified user [RPC|ADS] USER INFO target List the domain groups of the specified user. [RPC|ADS] USER RENAME oldname newname Rename specified user. [RPC|ADS] USER ADD name [password] [-F user flags] [-C comment] Add specified user.

LOOKUP MASTER DOMAIN Give IP of master browser for specified DOMAIN or workgroup. Defaults to local domain. CACHE Samba uses a general caching interface called 'gencache'. It can be controlled using 'NET CACHE'. All the timeout parameters support the suffixes: s - Seconds m - Minutes h - Hours d - Days w - Weeks CACHE ADD key data time-out Add specified key+data to the cache with the given timeout. CACHE DEL key Delete key from the cache. CACHE SET key data time-out Update data of existing cache entry. CACHE SEARCH PATTERN Search for the specified pattern in the cache data.

[RPC|ADS] TESTJOIN Check whether participation in a domain is still valid. [RPC|ADS] CHANGETRUSTPW Force change of domain trust password. RPC TRUSTDOM RPC TRUSTDOM ADD DOMAIN Add a interdomain trust account for DOMAIN. This is in fact a Samba account named DOMAIN$ with the account flag 'I' (interdomain trust account). If the command is used against localhost it has the same effect as smbpasswd -a -i DOMAIN. Please note that both commands expect a appropriate UNIX account. RPC TRUSTDOM DEL DOMAIN Remove interdomain trust account for DOMAIN. If it is used against localhost it has the same effect as smbpasswd -x DOMAIN$. RPC TRUSTDOM ESTABLISH DOMAIN Establish a trust relationship to a trusting domain. Interdomain account must already be created on the remote PDC.

RPC GETSID Fetch domain SID and store it in the local secrets.tdb. ADS LEAVE Make the remote host leave the domain it is part of. ADS STATUS Print out status of machine account of the local machine in ADS. Prints out quite some debug info. Aimed at developers, regular users should use NET ADS TESTJOIN. ADS PRINTER ADS PRINTER INFO [PRINTER] [SERVER] Lookup info for PRINTER on SERVER. The printer name defaults to "*", the server name defaults to the local host. ADS PRINTER PUBLISH PRINTER Publish specified printer using ADS. ADS PRINTER REMOVE PRINTER Remove specified printer from ADS directory. ADS SEARCH EXPRESSION ATTRIBUTES...

Example: net ads search '(objectCategory=group)' sAMAccountName ADS DN DN (attributes) Perform a raw LDAP search on a ADS server and dump the results. The DN standard LDAP DN, and the attributes are a list of LDAP fields to show in the result. Example: net ads dn 'CN=administrator,CN=Users,DC=my,DC=domain' SAMAccountName ADS WORKGROUP Print out workgroup name for specified kerberos realm.

SAM POLICY SHOW <account policy> Show the account policy value. SAM POLICY SET <account policy> <value> Set a value for the account policy. Valid values can be: "forever", "never", "off", or a number. SAM PROVISION Only available if ldapsam:editposix is set and winbindd is running. Properly populates the ldap tree with the basic accounts (Administrator) and groups (Domain Users, Domain Admins, Domain Guests) on the ldap tree. IDMAP DUMP <local tdb file name> Dumps the mappings contained in the local tdb file specified. This command is useful to dump only the mappings produced by the idmap_tdb backend. IDMAP RESTORE [input file] Restore the mappings from the specified file or stdin. IDMAP SECRET <DOMAIN>|ALLOC <secret> Store a secret for the specified domain, used primarily for domains that use idmap_ldap as a backend. In this case the secret is used as the password for the user DN used to bind to the ldap server. USERSHARE Starting with version 3.0.23, a Samba server now supports the ability for non-root users to add user defined shares to be exported using the "net usershare" commands. To set this up, first set up your smb.conf by adding to the [global] section: usershare path = /usr/local/samba/lib/usershares Next create the directory /usr/local/samba/lib/usershares, change the owner to root and set the group owner to the UNIX group who should have the ability to create usershares, for example a group called "serverops". Set the permissions on /usr/local/samba/lib/usershares to 01770. (Owner and group all access, no access for others, plus the sticky bit, which means that a file in that directory can be renamed or deleted only by the owner of the file). Finally, tell smbd how many usershares you will allow by adding to the [global] section of smb.conf a line such as : usershare max shares = 100. To allow 100 usershare definitions. Now, members of the UNIX group "serverops" can create user defined shares on demand using the commands below. The usershare commands are: net usershare add sharename path [comment] [acl] [guest_ok=[y|n]] - to add or change a user defined share. net usershare delete sharename - to delete a user defined share. net usershare info [-l|--long] [wildcard sharename] - to print info about a user defined share. net usershare list [-l|--long] [wildcard sharename] - to list user defined shares. USERSHARE ADD sharename path [comment] [acl] [guest_ok=[y|n]] Add or replace a new user defined share, with name "sharename". "path" specifies the absolute pathname on the system to be exported. Restrictions may be put on this, see the global smb.conf parameters: "usershare owner only", "usershare prefix allow list", and "usershare prefix deny list". The optional "comment" parameter is the comment that will appear on the share when browsed to by a client. The optional "acl" field specifies which users have read and write access to the entire share. Note that guest connections are not allowed unless the smb.conf parameter "usershare allow guests" has been set. The definition of a user defined share acl is: "user:permission", where user is a valid username on the system and permission can be "F", "R", or "D". "F" stands for "full permissions", ie. read and write permissions. "D" stands for "deny" for a user, ie. prevent this user from accessing this share. "R" stands for "read only", ie. only allow read access to this share (no creation of new files or directories or writing to files). The default if no "acl" is given is "Everyone:R", which means any authenticated user has read-only access. The optional "guest_ok" has the same effect as the parameter of the same name in smb.conf, in that it allows guest access to this user defined share. This parameter is only allowed if the global parameter "usershare allow guests" has been set to true in the smb.conf. There is no separate command to modify an existing user defined share, just use the "net usershare add [sharename]" command using the same sharename as the one you wish to modify and specify the new options you wish. The Samba smbd daemon notices user defined share modifications at connect time so will see the change immediately, there is no need to restart smbd on adding, deleting or changing a user defined share. USERSHARE DELETE sharename Deletes the user defined share by name. The Samba smbd daemon immediately notices this change, although it will not disconnect any users currently connected to the deleted share. USERSHARE INFO [-l|--long] [wildcard sharename] Get info on user defined shares owned by the current user matching the given pattern, or all users. net usershare info on its own dumps out info on the user defined shares that were created by the current user, or restricts them to share names that match the given wildcard pattern ('*' matches one or more characters, '?' matches only one character). If the '-l' or '--long' option is also given, it prints out info on user defined shares created by other users. The information given about a share looks like: [foobar] path=/home/jeremy comment=testme usershare_acl=Everyone:F guest_ok=n And is a list of the current settings of the user defined share that can be modified by the "net usershare add" command. USERSHARE LIST [-l|--long] wildcard sharename List all the user defined shares owned by the current user matching the given pattern, or all users. net usershare list on its own list out the names of the user defined shares that were created by the current user, or restricts the list to share names that match the given wildcard pattern ('*' matches one or more characters, '?' matches only one character). If the '-l' or '--long' option is also given, it includes the names of user defined shares created by other users. HELP [COMMAND] Gives usage information for the specified command. VERSION
This man page is complete 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 net manpage was written by Jelmer Vernooij. ATTRIBUTES

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. Samba 3.0 01/19/2009 NET(1M)
