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 : + + +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. + + +host: +Do a standard host name to IP address resolution, using +the system /etc/hosts, 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 /etc/nsswitch.conf + 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. + + +wins: +Query a name with the IP address listed in the +wins server parameter. If no +WINS server has been specified this method will be +ignored. + + +bcast: +Do a broadcast on each of the known local interfaces +listed in the interfaces +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 smb.conf +5 file parameter +(name resolve order) will be used. + +The default order is lmhosts, host, wins, bcast. Without +this parameter or any entry in the name resolve order + parameter of the smb.conf +5 file, the name resolution methods +will be attempted in this order. +'> + + +-n <primary NetBIOS name> +This option allows you to override +the NetBIOS name that Samba uses for itself. This is identical +to setting the NetBIOS +name parameter in the smb.conf +5 file. However, a command +line setting will take precedence over settings in +smb.conf +5. +'> + + +-i <scope> +This specifies a NetBIOS scope that +nmblookup will use to communicate with when +generating NetBIOS names. For details on the use of NetBIOS +scopes, see rfc1001.txt and rfc1002.txt.

The +client will first check the USER environment variable, then the +LOGNAME variable and if either exists, the +string is uppercased. If these environmental variables are not +found, the username GUEST is used. + +A third option is to use a credentials file which +contains the plaintext of the username and password. This +option is mainly provided for scripts where the admin does not +wish to pass the credentials on the command line or via environment +variables. If this method is used, make certain that the permissions +on the file restrict access from unwanted users. See the +-A for more details. + +Be cautious about including passwords in scripts. Also, on +many systems the command line of a running process may be seen +via the ps command. To be safe always allow +rpcclient to prompt for a password and type +it in directly. + +'> + + +-A|--authfile=filename +This option allows +you to specify a file from which to read the username and +password used in the connection.
