<a name="DESCRIPTION"></a>
<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
<li><strong><strong>rpcclient</strong></strong>
is a utility for developers for executing various MS-RPC functions. It's
primary use is for testing Samba's own MS-RPC server implementation, however
many administrators have written scripts around it to manage Windows NT clients
from their UNIX workstation.
<a name="OPTIONS"></a>
<h2>OPTIONS</h2>
<p><br><ul>
<p><br><a name="minusd"></a>
<li><strong><strong>-d debuglevel</strong></strong>
set the debuglevel. Debug level 0 is the lowest and 100 being the
highest. This should be set to 100 if you are planning on
submitting a bug report to the Samba team (see BUGS.txt).
<p><br><a name="minusS"></a>
<li><strong><strong>-S server</strong></strong>
NetBIOS name of Server to which you wish to connect. The server can be
any SMB/CIFS server. The name is resolved using either the "name resolve
order = " line or by using the <strong>-R</strong> option.
<p><br><a name="minusl"></a>
<li><strong><strong>-l logbasename</strong></strong>
File name for log/debug files. .client will be
appended. The log file is never removed by the client.
<p><br><a name="minusn"></a>
<li><strong><strong>-n netbios name</strong></strong>
NetBIOS name of the local machine. This option
is only needed if your Samba client cannot find
it automatically. Samba should use the uppercase of the machine's
hostname.
<p><br><a name="minusN"></a>
<li><strong><strong>-N</strong></strong>
tells rpcclient not to ask for a password. rpcclient will prompt
the user by default.
<p><br><a name="minusI"></a>
<li><strong><strong>-I destIP</strong></strong>
The IP address of the server specified with the <strong>-S</strong>
option. Only needed when the server's NetBIOS
name cannot be resolved using WINS or broadcast
and isn't found in the LMHOSTS file.
<p><br><a name="minusE"></a>
<li><strong><strong>-E</strong></strong>
causes regedit to write messages to stderr instead of stdout.
<p><br><a name="minusU"></a>
<li><strong><strong>-U username[%pass]</strong></strong>
Sets the SMB username or username and password. If %pass is not
specified, The user will be prompted. The client will first check the USER
environment variable, then the LOGNAME variable and if either exist, the
string is uppercased. Anything in these variables following a % sign will be
treated as the password. If these environmental variables are not found, the
username GUEST is used.
<p><br>If the password is not included in these environment variables
(using the %pass syntax), rpcclient will look for a PASSWD environment
variable from which to read the password.
<p><br>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 doesn't desire 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 <strong>-A</strong> for more details.
<p><br>Be cautious about including passwords in scripts or in the
<code>PASSWD</code> environment variable. Also, on many systems the command
line of a running process may be seen via the <code>ps</code> command to be
safe always allow smbclient to prompt for a password and type it in
directly.
<p><br><a name="minusA"></a>
<li><strong><strong>-A <filename></strong></strong> This option allows you to specify a file from which
to read the username and password used in the connection. The format
of the file is
<p><br><code>username = <value></code> <br>
<code>password = <value></code> <br>
<p><br>Make certain that the permissions on the file restrict access from
unwanted users.
<p><br><a name="minusW"></a>
<li><strong><strong>-W domain</strong></strong>
Set the SMB domain of the username. This overrides the default
domain which is the domain of the server specified with the
bt(-S) option. If the domain specified is the same as the server's
NetBIOS name, it causes the client to log on using the
server's local SAM (as opposed to the Domain SAM).
<p><br><a name="minusP"></a>
<li><strong><strong>-P</strong></strong>
operate in promptless mode. Without this mode (the default)
rpcclient displays a prompt of the form '[domain\username@host]$'
<p><br><a name="minusc"></a>
<li><strong><strong>-c 'command string'</strong></strong>
execute semicolon separated commands (listed below))
<p><br><a name="minust"></a>
<li><strong><strong>-t terminalcode</strong></strong>
This tells the Samba client how to interpret the incoming filenames, in regards
to character sets. The list here is not complete. For a complete list see your
local Samba source. Some valid options are sjis, euc, jis7, jis8, junet and hex.
<p><br><a name="minusO"></a>
<li><strong><strong>-O socket options</strong></strong>
These socket options are the same as in smb.conf (under the bt(socket options = )
section).
<p><br><a name="minuss"></a>
<li><strong><strong>-s smb.conf</strong></strong>
Specifies the location of the all important smb.conf file.
<p><br><a name="minusi"></a>
<li><strong><strong>-i scope</strong></strong>
Defines the NetBIOS scope. For more information on NetBIOS scopes, see rfc1001
and rfc1002. NetBIOS scopes are rarely used.
<p><br></ul>
<p><br><a name="COMMANDS"></a>
<h2>COMMANDS</h2>
<p><br><a name="SPOOLSSCMD"></a>
<li><strong><strong>SPOOLSS Commands</strong></strong>
<li><strong><a href="??">spoolenum</a></strong>
Execute an EnumPrinters call. This lists the various
installed and share printers. Refer to the MS Platform
SDK documentation for more details of the various
flags and calling options.
<p><br><li><strong><a href="??">spoolenumports <level></a></strong>
Executes an EnumPorts call using the specified info level.
Currently only info level 1 and 2 are supported.
<p><br><li><strong><a href="??">spoolenumdata</a></strong>
Enumerate all printer setting data stored on the server.
On Windows NT clients, these values are stored
in the registry, while Samba servers store them in the printers
TDB. This command corresponds to the MS Platform SDK EnumPorts
function.
<p><br><li><strong><a href="??">spooljobs <printer></a></strong>
List the jobs and status of a given printer. This command
corresponds to the MS Platform SDK EnumJobs function.
<p><br><li><strong><a href="??">spoolopen <printer></a></strong>
Execute an OpenPrinterEx() and ClosePrinter()
RPC against a given printer.
<p><br><li><strong><a href="??">spoolgetdata</a></strong>
Retrive the data for a given printer setting. See the
<strong>spoolenumdata</strong> command for more information. This command
corresponds to the GetPrinterData() MS Platform SDK function.
<p><br><li><strong><a href="??">spoolgetprinter <printer></a></strong>
Retrieve the current printer information. This command
sorresponds to the GetPrinter() MS Platform SDK function.
<p><br><li><strong><a href="??">spoolgetprinterdriver <printer></a></strong>
Retrive the printer driver information (such as driver file,
config file, dependent files, etc...) for the given printer.
This command corresponds to the GetPrinterDriver() MS Platform
SDK function.
<p><br><li><strong><a href="??">spoolgetprinterdriverdir <arch></a></strong>
Execute a GetPrinterDriverDirectory() RPC to retreive the
SMB share name and subdirectory for storing printer driver
files for a given architecture. Possible values for <arch> are
"Windows 4.0" (for Windows 95/98), "Windows NT x86", "Windows NT
PowerPC", "Windows Alpha_AXP", and "Windows NT R4000".
<p><br><li><strong><a href="??">spooladdprinter <printername> <sharename>
<drivername> <port></a></strong>
Add a printer on the remote server. This printer will be automatically
shared. Be aware that the printer driver must already be installed
on the server (see <strong>addprinterdriver</strong>) and the <port> must
be a valid port name.
<p><br><li><strong><a href="??">spooladdprinterdriver <arch> <config></a></strong>
Execute an AddPrinterDriver() RPC to install the printer
driver information on the server. Note that the driver files
should already exist in the directort returned by
<strong>spoolgetprinterdriverdir</strong>. Possible values for <arch>
are the same as those for the <strong>spooolgetprintedriverdir</strong> command.
The <config> parameter is defined as follows:
<p><br><li><strong></strong><Long Printer Name>:<Driver File Name>:<Data File Name>:<Config File Name>:<Help File Name>:<Language Monitor Name>:<Default Data Type>:<Comma Separated list of Files>
<p><br><li><strong></strong>Any empty fields should be enter as the string "NULL".
<p><br><li><strong></strong>Samba does not need to support the concept of Print Monitors
since these only apply to local printers whose driver can make use
of a bi-directional link for communication. This field should
be "NULL". On a remote NT print server, the Print Monitor for a driver
must already be installed prior to adding the driver or else the RPC
will fail.
<p><br><a name="GENERALCMD"></a>
<li><strong><strong>General Commands</strong></strong>
<li><strong><a href="??">set</a></strong>
Set miscellaneous rpcclient command line options during a running
session.
<p><br><li><strong><a href="??">use</a></strong>
Connect to a rmeote SMB server. <strong>rpcclient</strong> has the ability
to maintain connections to multiple server simulaneously.
<p><br><li><strong><a href="??">help</a></strong>
Print a listing of all known commands or extended help
on a particular command.
<p><br><li><strong><a href="??">quit</a></strong>
Exit rpcclient.
<p><br><a name="BUGS"></a>
<h2>BUGS</h2>
rpcclient is designed as a developer testing tool and may not be robust
in certain areas (such as command line parsing). It has been known to
generate a core dump upon failures when invalid parameters where
passed to the interpreter.
<p><br>From Luke Leighton's original rpcclient man page:
"WARNING! The MSRPC over SMB code has been developed from examining
Network traces. No documentation is available from the original creators
(Microsoft) on how MSRPC over SMB works, or how the individual MSRPC services
work. Microsoft's implementation of these services has been demonstrated
(and reported) to be... a bit flakey in places.
<p><br>The development of Samba's implementation is also a bit rough, and as more
of the services are understood, it can even result in versions of
<strong>smbd(8)</strong> and rpcclient that are incompatible for some commands or
services. Additionally, the developers are sending reports to Microsoft,
and problems found or reported to Microsoft are fixed in Service Packs,
which may result in incompatibilities."
