+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+This perl script is part of the Samba <URL:samba.7.html> suite.
+.PP
+\fBnmblookup\fR 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.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.TP
+\fB-M\fR
+Searches for a master browser by looking
+up the NetBIOS name \fIname\fR with a
+type of 0x1d. If \fI name\fR is "-" then it does a lookup on the special name
+__MSBROWSE__.
+.TP
+\fB-R\fR
+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.
+.TP
+\fB-S\fR
+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.
+.TP
+\fB-r\fR
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
-\fBnmbd\fP daemon is running on this machine it also
-binds to this port\&.
-.IP
-.IP "\fB-A\fP"
-Interpret <name> as an IP Address and do a node status
-query on this address\&.
-.IP
-.IP "\fB-h\fP"
-Print a help (usage) message\&.
-.IP
-.IP "\fB-B broadcast address\fP"
-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
-\fBinterfaces\fP parameter of the
-\fBsmb\&.conf (5)\fP file\&.
-.IP
-.IP "\fB-U unicast address\fP"
-Do a unicast query to the specified
-address or host \f(CW"unicast address"\fP\&. This option (along with the
-\fB-R\fP option) is needed to query a WINS server\&.
-.IP
-.IP "\fB-d debuglevel\fP"
-debuglevel is an integer from 0 to 10\&.
-.IP
-The default value if this parameter is not specified is zero\&.
-.IP
-The higher this value, the more detail will be logged about the
-activities of \fBnmblookup\fP\&. At level 0, only critical errors and
-serious warnings will be logged\&.
-.IP
-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\&.
-.IP
-Note that specifying this parameter here will override the \fBlog
-level\fP parameter in the \fBsmb\&.conf
-(5)\fP file\&.
-.IP
-.IP "\fB-s smb\&.conf\fP"
-This parameter specifies the pathname to the
-Samba configuration file, \fBsmb\&.conf\fP\&.
-This file controls all aspects of
-the Samba setup on the machine\&.
-.IP
-.IP "\fB-i scope\fP"
-This specifies a NetBIOS scope that \fBnmblookup\fP 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 \fIvery\fP rarely used, only set this parameter if you are the
-system administrator in charge of all the NetBIOS systems you
-communicate with\&.
-.IP
-.IP "\fB-T\fP"
-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 \f(CW"IP address NetBIOS name"\fP pair that is the normal
-output\&.
-.IP
-.IP "\fBname\fP"
-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 \f(CW#<type>\fP to the name\&. This name may also be \f(CW"*"\fP,
-which will return all registered names within a broadcast area\&.
