SMBUTIL(1)		     General Commands Manual		      SMBUTIL(1)

NAME
     smbutil -- interface to the server message block (SMB1/CIFS) requester

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

DESCRIPTION
     The smbutil command is used to control SMB requester and issue various com-
     mands.

     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 en-
	     crypted password starts with the `$$1' symbols.  Warning:	the  en-
	     cryption 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) manual page (all up-
	     percase 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
		/usr/share/examples/smbfs/dot.nsmbrc for details.
