+\fB-I IP-address\fR
+\fIIP address\fR is the address of the server to connect to.
+It should be specified in standard "a.b.c.d" notation.
+
+Normally the client would attempt to locate a named
+SMB/CIFS server by looking it up via the NetBIOS name resolution
+mechanism described above in the \fIname resolve order\fR
+parameter above. Using this parameter will force the client
+to assume that the server is on the machine with the specified IP
+address and the NetBIOS name component of the resource being
+connected to will be ignored.
+
+There is no default for this parameter. If not supplied,
+it will be determined automatically by the client as described
+above.

\fB-l|--logfile=logbasename\fR
File name for log/debug files. The extension
\&'.client' will be appended. The log file is never removed
