User Commands SMBTRE(1)
NAME
smbtree - A text based smb network browser
SYNOPSIS
smbtree [-b] [-D] [-S]
DESCRIPTION
This tool is part of the samba(7) suite.
smbtree is a smb browser program in text mode. It is similar
to the "Network Neighborhood" found on Windows computers. It
prints a tree with all the known domains, the servers in
those domains and the shares on the servers.
OPTIONS
-b
Query network nodes by sending requests as broadcasts
instead of querying the local master browser.
-D
Only print a list of all the domains known on broadcast
or by the master browser
-S
Only print a list of all the domains and servers
responding on broadcast or known by the master browser.
-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
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.
-N
If specified, this parameter suppresses the normal
password prompt from the client to the user. This is
useful when accessing a service that does not require a
password.
Unless a password is specified on the command line or
this parameter is specified, the client will request a
password.
If a password is specified on the command line and this
option is also defined the password on the command line
will be silently ingnored and no password will be used.
-k
Try to authenticate with kerberos. Only useful in an
Active Directory environment.
-A--authentication-file=filename
This option allows you to specify a file from which to
read the username and password used in the connection.
The format of the file is
username =
password =
domain =
Make certain that the permissions on the file restrict
access from unwanted users.
-U--user=username[%password]
Sets the SMB username or username and password.
If %password is not specified, the user will be
prompted. The client will first check the USER
environment variable, then the LOGNAME variable and if
either exists, the string is uppercased. If these
environmental variables are not found, the username

GUEST is used.
A third option is to use a credentials file which
contains the plaintext of the username and password.
This option is mainly provided for scripts where the
admin does not wish to pass the credentials on the
command line or via environment variables. If this
method is used, make certain that the permissions on the
file restrict access from unwanted users. See the -A for
more details.
Be cautious about including passwords in scripts. Also,
on many systems the command line of a running process
may be seen via the ps command. To be safe always allow
rpcclient to prompt for a password and type it in
directly.
-h--help
Print a summary of command line options.
VERSION
This man page is correct 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 smbtree man page was written by Jelmer Vernooij.

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 Apr21 svc:/network/samba:default
Samba 3.0 Last change: 01/19/2009 3
User Commands SMBTRE(1)
disabled Apr21 svc:/network/winbind:default
disabled Apr21 svc:/network/wins:default
disabled Apr21 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 HTP 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.
