.SH NAME
smbstatus \- report on current Samba connections
.SH "SYNOPSIS"

.nf
\fBsmbstatus\fR [-P] [-b] [-d <debug level>] [-v] [-L] [-B] [-p] [-S] [-s <configuration
          file>] [-u <username>]
.fi

.SH "DESCRIPTION"

.PP
This tool is part of the \fBSamba\fR(7) suite\&.

.PP
\fBsmbstatus\fR is a very simple program to list the current Samba connections\&.

.SH "OPTIONS"

.TP
-P|--profile
If samba has been compiled with the profiling option, print only the contents of the profiling shared memory area\&.


.TP
-b|--brief
gives brief output\&.


.TP
-V
Prints the version number for \fBsmbd\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\&.


.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\&.


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


.TP
-v|--verbose
gives verbose output\&.


.TP
-L|--locks
causes smbstatus to only list locks\&.


.TP
-B|--byterange
causes smbstatus to include byte range locks\&.


.TP
-p|--processes
print a list of \fBsmbd\fR(8) processes and exit\&. Useful for scripting\&.


.TP
-S|--shares
causes smbstatus to only list shares\&.


.TP
-h|--help
Print a summary of command line options\&.


.TP
-u|--user=<username>
selects information relevant to \fIusername\fR only\&.


.SH "VERSION"

.PP
This man page is correct for version 3\&.0 of the Samba suite\&.

.SH "SEE ALSO"

.PP
\fBsmbd\fR(8) and \fBsmb.conf\fR(5)\&.

.SH "AUTHOR"

.PP
The original Samba software and related utilities were created by Andrew Tridgell\&. Samba is now developed by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed\&.

.PP
The original Samba man pages were written by Karl Auer\&. The man page sources were converted to YODL format (another excellent piece of Open Source software, available at ftp://ftp\&.icce\&.rug\&.nl/pub/unix/) and updated for the Samba 2\&.0 release by Jeremy Allison\&. The conversion to DocBook for Samba 2\&.2 was done by Gerald Carter\&. The conversion to DocBook XML 4\&.2 for Samba 3\&.0 was done by Alexander Bokovoy\&.
