This option is disabled by default because it is specific to Windows 95 and Windows 95 machines only\&. If set, \fBnmblookup\fR(1) will be called with \fB-B\fR option\&. + + +.TP +subnet broadcast address +Without this option, \fBfindsmb \fR will probe the subnet of the machine where \fBfindsmb\fR(1) is run\&. This value is passed to \fBnmblookup\fR(1) as part of the \fB-B\fR option\&. + + +.SH "EXAMPLES" + +.PP +The output of \fBfindsmb\fR lists the following information for all machines that respond to the initial\fBnmblookup\fR for any name: IP address, NetBIOS name, Workgroup name, operating system, and SMB server version\&. + +.PP +There will be a '+' in front of the workgroup name for machines that are local master browsers for that workgroup\&.

If \fBnmbd\fR is running on the system, you will only get the IP address and the DNS name of the machine\&. To get proper responses from Windows 95 and Windows 98 machines, the command must be run as root and with \fB-r\fR option on a machine without \fBnmbd\fR running\&. + +.PP +For example, running \fBfindsmb\fR without \fB-r\fR option set would yield output similar to the following +.nf + +IP ADDR NETBIOS NAME WORKGROUP/OS/VERSION +--------------------------------------------------------------------- +192\&.168\&.35\&.10 MINESET-TEST1 [DMVENGR] +192\&.168\&.35\&.55 LINUXBOX *[MYGROUP] [Unix] [Samba 2\&.0\&.6] +192\&.168\&.35\&.56 HERBNT2 [HERB-NT] +192\&.168\&.35\&.63 GANDALF [MVENGR] [Unix] [Samba 2\&.0\&.5a for IRIX] +192\&.168\&.35\&.65 SAUNA [WORKGROUP] [Unix] [Samba 1\&.9\&.18p10] +192\&.168\&.35\&.71 FROGSTAR [ENGR] [Unix] [Samba 2\&.0\&.0 for IRIX] +192\&.168\&.35\&.78 HERBDHCP1 +[HERB] +192\&.168\&.35\&.88 SCNT2 +[MVENGR] [Windows NT 4\&.0] [NT LAN Manager 4\&.0] +192\&.168\&.35\&.93 FROGSTAR-PC [MVENGR] [Windows 5\&.0] [Windows 2000 LAN Manager] +192\&.168\&.35\&.97 HERBNT1 *[HERB-NT] [Windows NT 4\&.0] [NT LAN Manager 4\&.0] +.fi + +.SH "VERSION" + +.PP +This man page is correct for version 3\&.0 of the Samba suite\&. + +.SH "SEE ALSO" + +.PP +\fBnmbd\fR(8),\fBsmbclient\fR(1), and \fBnmblookup\fR(1) + +.SH "AUTHOR" + +.PP +The original Samba software and related utilities were created by Andrew Tridgell\&.
