NAME
     gentest  -  Run  random  generic SMB operations against two SMB servers and
     show the differences in behavior

SYNOPSIS
     gentest {//server1/share1} {//server2/share2} {-U user%pass} {-U user%pass}
	     [-s seed] [-o numops] [-a] [-A] [-i FILE] [-O] [-S FILE] [-L]  [-F]
	     [-C] [-X]

DESCRIPTION
     gentest  is  a  utility  for detecting differences in behaviour between SMB
     servers.  It  will  run  a  random  set  of  generic   operations	 against
     //server1/share1  and then the same random set against //server2/share2 and
     display the differences in the responses it gets.

     This utility is used by the Samba team to find differences in behaviour be-
     tween Samba and Windows servers.

OPTIONS
     -U user%pass
	 Specify the user and password to use when logging  on	on  the  shares.
	 This parameter is mandatory and has to be specified twice.

	 Seed the random number generator with the specified value.

     -o numops
	 Set the number of operations to perform.

     -a
	 Print the operations that are performed.

     -A
	 Backtrack to find minimal number of operations required to make the re-
	 sponse to a certain call differ.

     -i FILE
	 Specify  a  file containing the names of fields that have to be ignored
	 (such as time fields). See below for a description of the file format.

     -O
	 Enable oplocks.

     -S FILE
	 Set preset seeds file. The default is gentest_seeds.dat.

     -L
	 Use preset seeds

     -F
	 Fast reconnect (just close files)

     -C
	 Continuous analysis mode

     -X
	 Analyse even when the test succeeded.
