It will run generate random filenames/masks and check if these match the same files they do on the remote file as they do on the local server. It will display any differences it finds. </para> <para> This utility is used by the Samba team to find differences in behaviour between Samba and Windows servers. </para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>OPTIONS</title> <variablelist> <varlistentry> <term>-U user%pass</term> <listitem><para> Specify the user and password to use when logging on on the shares.
