-\fBsmbsh\fR allows you to access an NT filesystem using UNIX commands such as \fBls\fR, \fB egrep\fR, and \fBrcp\fR\&. You must use a shell that is dynamically linked in order for \fBsmbsh\fR to work correctly\&.

.SH "OPTIONS"
-
.TP
--W WORKGROUP
-Override the default workgroup specified in the workgroup parameter of the \fBsmb.conf\fR(5) file for this session\&. This may be needed to connect to some servers\&.
-
-
+\fB-W WORKGROUP\fR
+Override the default workgroup specified in the
+workgroup parameter of the \fIsmb.conf\fR file
+for this session. This may be needed to connect to some
+servers.
.TP
--U username[%pass]
-Sets the SMB username or username and password\&. If this option is not specified, the user will be prompted for both the username and the password\&. If %pass is not specified, the user will be prompted for the password\&.
-
-
+\fB-U username[%pass]\fR
+Sets the SMB username or username and password.
+If this option is not specified, the user will be prompted for
+both the username and the password. If %pass is not specified,
+the user will be prompted for the password.
.TP
--P prefix
-This option allows the user to set the directory prefix for SMB access\&. The default value if this option is not specified is \fBsmb\fR\&.
-
-
+\fB-P prefix\fR
+This option allows
+the user to set the directory prefix for SMB access. The
+default value if this option is not specified is
+\fBsmb\fR.
.TP
--s <configuration file>
-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 \fI smb\&.conf(5)\fR for more information\&. The default configuration file name is determined at compile time\&.
-
-
+\fB-R <name resolve order>\fR
+This option is used to determine what naming
+services and in what order to resolve
+host names to IP addresses. The option takes a space-separated
+string of different name resolution options.
+
+The options are :"lmhosts", "host", "wins" and "bcast".
+They cause names to be resolved as follows :
+.RS
+.TP 0.2i
+\(bu
+lmhosts :
+Lookup an IP address in the Samba lmhosts file. If the
+line in lmhosts has no name type attached to the
+NetBIOS name
+(see the lmhosts(5)
+for details) then any name type matches for lookup.
+.TP 0.2i
+\(bu
+host :
+Do a standard host name to IP address resolution, using
+the system \fI/etc/hosts\fR, NIS, or DNS
+lookups. This method of name resolution is operating
+system dependent, for instance on IRIX or Solaris this
+may be controlled by the \fI/etc/nsswitch.conf
+\fR file). Note that this method is only used
+if the NetBIOS name type being queried is the 0x20
+(server) name type, otherwise it is ignored.
+.TP 0.2i
+\(bu
+wins :
+Query a name with the IP address listed in the
+\fIwins server\fR parameter. If no
+WINS server has been specified this method will be
+ignored.
+.TP 0.2i
+\(bu
+bcast :
+Do a broadcast on each of the known local interfaces
+listed in the \fIinterfaces\fR
+parameter. This is the least reliable of the name
+resolution methods as it depends on the target host
+being on a locally connected subnet.
+.RE
+
+If this parameter is not set then the name resolve order
+defined in the \fIsmb.conf\fR file parameter
+(name resolve order) will be used.
+
+The default order is lmhosts, host, wins, bcast. Without
+this parameter or any entry in the \fIname resolve order
+\fR parameter of the \fIsmb.conf\fR
+file, the name resolution methods will be attempted in this
+order.
.TP
--d|--debug=debuglevel
-\fIdebuglevel\fR is an integer from 0 to 10\&. The default value if this parameter is not specified is zero\&.
-
-
-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 \fIsmb\&.conf(5)\fR file\&.
+\fB-d <debug level>\fR
+debug level is an integer from 0 to 10.
+The default value if this parameter is not specified
+is zero.
+The higher this value, the more detail will be logged
+about the activities of \fBnmblookup\fR. At level
+0, only critical errors and serious warnings will be logged.
.TP
--R <name resolve order>
-This option is used to determine what naming services and in what order to resolve host names to IP addresses\&. The option takes a space-separated string of different name resolution options\&.
-
-
-The options are: "lmhosts", "host", "wins" and "bcast"\&. They cause names to be resolved as follows :
-
-
-\fBlmhosts\fR: Lookup an IP address in the Samba lmhosts file\&. If the line in lmhosts has no name type attached to the NetBIOS name (see the \fBlmhosts\fR(5) for details) then any name type matches for lookup\&.
-
-\fBhost\fR: Do a standard host name to IP address resolution, using the system \fI/etc/hosts\fR, NIS, or DNS lookups\&. This method of name resolution is operating system dependent, for instance on IRIX or Solaris this may be controlled by the \fI/etc/nsswitch\&.conf \fR file)\&. Note that this method is only used if the NetBIOS name type being queried is the 0x20 (server) name type, otherwise it is ignored\&.
-
-\fBwins\fR: Query a name with the IP address listed in the \fIwins server\fR parameter\&. If no WINS server has been specified this method will be ignored\&.
-
-\fBbcast\fR: Do a broadcast on each of the known local interfaces listed in the \fIinterfaces\fR parameter\&. This is the least reliable of the name resolution methods as it depends on the target host being on a locally connected subnet\&.
-
-If this parameter is not set then the name resolve order defined in the \fBsmb.conf\fR(5) file parameter (\fIname resolve order\fR) will be used\&.
-
-
-The default order is lmhosts, host, wins, bcast\&. Without this parameter or any entry in the \fIname resolve order \fR parameter of the \fBsmb.conf\fR(5) file, the name resolution methods will be attempted in this order\&.
-
-
+\fB-l logfilename\fR
+If specified causes all debug messages to be
+written to the file specified by \fIlogfilename
+\fR. If not specified then all messages will be
+written to\fIstderr\fR.
.TP
--L libdir
-This parameter specifies the location of the shared libraries used by \fBsmbsh\fR\&. The default value is specified at compile time\&.
-
-
+\fB-L libdir\fR

-Any dynamically linked command you execute from this shell will access the \fI/smb\fR directory using the smb protocol\&. For example, the command \fBls /smb \fR will show a list of workgroups\&. The command\fBls /smb/MYGROUP \fR will show all the machines in the workgroup MYGROUP\&. The command\fBls /smb/MYGROUP/<machine-name>\fR will show the share names for that machine\&. You could then, for example, use the \fB cd\fR command to change directories, \fBvi\fR to edit files, and \fBrcp\fR to copy files\&.
