-<p><a name="DESCRIPTION"></a>
-<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
-
-<p>This program is part of the <strong>Samba</strong> suite.
-<p><strong>nmblookup</strong> is used to query NetBIOS names and map them to IP
-addresses in a network using NetBIOS over TCP/IP queries. The options
-allow the name queries to be directed at a particular IP broadcast area
-or to a particular machine. All queries are done over UDP.
-<p><a name="OPTIONS"></a>
-<h2>OPTIONS</h2>
-
-<p><dl>
-<p><a name="minusM"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-M</strong></strong><dd> Searches for a master browser by looking up the
-NetBIOS name <a href="nmblookup.1.html#name"><strong>name</strong></a> with a type of 0x1d. If <a href="nmblookup.1.html#name"><strong>name</strong></a>
-is <code>"-"</code> then it does a lookup on the special name <code>__MSBROWSE__</code>.
-<p><a name="minusR"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-R</strong></strong><dd> Set the recursion desired bit in the packet to do a
-recursive lookup. This is used when sending a name query to a machine
-running a WINS server and the user wishes to query the names in the
-WINS server. If this bit is unset the normal (broadcast responding)
-NetBIOS processing code on a machine is used instead. See rfc1001,
-rfc1002 for details.
-<p><a name="minusS"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-S</strong></strong><dd> Once the name query has returned an IP address then do a
-node status query as well. A node status query returns the NetBIOS names
-registered by a host.
-<p><a name="minusr"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-r</strong></strong><dd> Try and bind to UDP port 137 to send and receive UDP
-datagrams. The reason for this option is a bug in Windows 95 where it
-ignores the source port of the requesting packet and only replies to
-UDP port 137. Unfortunately, on most UNIX systems root privilage is
-needed to bind to this port, and in addition, if the
-<a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> daemon is running on this machine it also
-binds to this port.
-<p><a name="minusA"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-A</strong></strong><dd> Interpret &lt;name&gt; as an IP Address and do a node status
-query on this address.
-<p><a name="minush"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-h</strong></strong><dd> Print a help (usage) message.
-<p><a name="minusB"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-B broadcast address</strong></strong><dd> Send the query to the given broadcast
-address. Without this option the default behavior of nmblookup is to
-send the query to the broadcast address of the network
-interfaces as either auto-detected or defined in the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#interfaces"><strong>interfaces</strong></a> parameter of the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html"><strong>smb.conf (5)</strong></a> file.
-<p><a name="minusU"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-U unicast address</strong></strong><dd> Do a unicast query to the specified
-address or host <code>"unicast address"</code>. This option (along with the
-<a href="nmblookup.1.html#minusR"><strong>-R</strong></a> option) is needed to query a WINS server.
-<p><a name="minusd"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-d debuglevel</strong></strong><dd> debuglevel is an integer from 0 to 10.
-<p>The default value if this parameter is not specified is zero.
-<p>The higher this value, the more detail will be logged about the
-activities of <strong>nmblookup</strong>. At level 0, only critical errors and
-serious warnings will be logged.
-<p>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
-data, most of which is extremely cryptic.
-<p>Note that specifying this parameter here will override the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#loglevel"><strong>log
-level</strong></a> parameter in the <a href="smb.conf.5.html"><strong>smb.conf
-(5)</strong></a> file.
-<p><a name="minuss"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-s smb.conf</strong></strong><dd> This parameter specifies the pathname to the
-Samba configuration file, <a href="smb.conf.5.html"><strong>smb.conf</strong></a>.
-This file controls all aspects of
-the Samba setup on the machine.
-<p><a name="minusi"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-i scope</strong></strong><dd> This specifies a NetBIOS scope that <strong>nmblookup</strong> will use
-to communicate with when generating NetBIOS names. For details on the
-use of NetBIOS scopes, see rfc1001.txt and rfc1002.txt. NetBIOS scopes
-are <em>very</em> rarely used, only set this parameter if you are the
-system administrator in charge of all the NetBIOS systems you
-communicate with.
-<p><a name="minusT"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-T</strong></strong><dd> This causes any IP addresses found in the lookup to be
-looked up via a reverse DNS lookup into a DNS name, and printed out
-before each <code>"IP address NetBIOS name"</code> pair that is the normal
-output.
-<p><a name="name"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>name</strong></strong><dd> This is the NetBIOS name being queried. Depending upon
-the previous options this may be a NetBIOS name or IP address. If a
-NetBIOS name then the different name types may be specified by
-appending <code>#&lt;type&gt;</code> to the name. This name may also be <code>"*"</code>,
-which will return all registered names within a broadcast area.
-<p></dl>
-<p><a name="EXAMPLES"></a>
-<h2>EXAMPLES</h2>
-
-<p><strong>nmblookup</strong> can be used to query a WINS server (in the same way
-<strong>nslookup</strong> is used to query DNS servers). To query a WINS server,
-<strong>nmblookup</strong> must be called like this:
-<p><code>nmblookup -U server -R 'name'</code>
-<p>For example, running :
-<p><code>nmblookup -U samba.org -R IRIX#1B'</code>
-<p>would query the WINS server samba.org for the domain master
-browser (1B name type) for the IRIX workgroup.
-<p><a name="VERSION"></a>
-<h2>VERSION</h2>
-
-<p>This man page is correct for version 2.0 of the Samba suite.

-<p>The original Samba software and related utilities were created by
-Andrew Tridgell <a href="mailto:samba@samba.org"><em>samba@samba.org</em></a>. Samba is now developed
-by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar to the way the
-Linux kernel is developed.
-<p>The original Samba man pages were written by Karl Auer. The man page
-sources were converted to YODL format (another excellent piece of Open
-Source software, available at
-<a href="ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/"><strong>ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/</strong></a>)
