.SH NAME
vfstest \- tool for testing samba VFS modules
.SH SYNOPSIS

\fBvfstest\fR [ \fB-d debuglevel\fR ] [ \fB-c command\fR ] [ \fB-l logfile\fR ] [ \fB-h\fR ]

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
This tool is part of the \fBSamba\fR(7) suite.
.PP
\fBvfstest\fR is a small command line
utility that has the ability to test dso samba VFS modules. It gives the
user the ability to call the various VFS functions manually and
supports cascaded VFS modules.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.TP
\fB-c|--command=command\fR
Execute the specified (colon-separated) commands.
See below for the commands that are available.
.TP
\fB-h|--help\fR
Print a summary of command line options.
.TP
\fB-l|--logfile=logbasename\fR
File name for log/debug files. The extension
\&'.client' will be appended. The log file is never removed
by the client.
.TP
\fB-V\fR
Prints the version number for 
\fBsmbd\fR.
.TP
\fB-s <configuration file>\fR
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 \fIsmb.conf(5)\fR for more information.
The default configuration file name is determined at 
compile time.
.TP
\fB-d|--debug=debuglevel\fR
\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 file.
.TP
\fB-l|--logfile=logbasename\fR
File name for log/debug files. The extension
".client" will be appended. The log file is
never removed by the client.
