    NAME
           smbstatus - report on current Samba connections
    
    SYNOPSIS
           smbstatus [-P] [-b] [-d <debug level>] [-v] [-L] [-B] [-p] [-S] [-N] [-f] [-s <configuration file>]
    	[-u <username>] [-n|--numeric] [-R|--profile-rates]
    
    DESCRIPTION
           This tool is part of the samba(7) suite.
    
           smbstatus is a very simple program to list the current Samba connections.
    
    OPTIONS
           -P|--profile
    	   If samba has been compiled with the profiling option, print only the contents of the profiling
    	   shared memory area.
    
           -R|--profile-rates
    	   If samba has been compiled with the profiling option, print the contents of the profiling shared
    	   memory area and the call rates.
    
           -b|--brief
    	   gives brief output.
    
           -d|--debuglevel=level
    	   level is an integer from 0 to 10. The default value if this parameter is not specified is 0.
    
    	   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 smb.conf
    	   file.
    
           -V|--version
    	   Prints the program version number.
    
           -s|--configfile=<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 smb.conf for more
    	   information. The default configuration file name is determined at compile time.
    
           -l|--log-basename=logdirectory
    	   Base directory name for log/debug files. The extension ".progname" will be appended (e.g.
    	   log.smbclient, log.smbd, etc...). The log file is never removed by the client.
    
           --option=<name>=<value>
    	   Set the smb.conf(5) option "<name>" to value "<value>" from the command line. This overrides
    	   compiled-in defaults and options read from the configuration file.
    
           -v|--verbose
    	   gives verbose output.
    
           -L|--locks
    	   causes smbstatus to only list locks.
    
           -B|--byterange
    	   causes smbstatus to include byte range locks.
    
           -p|--processes
    	   print a list of smbd(8) processes and exit. Useful for scripting.
    
           -S|--shares
    	   causes smbstatus to only list shares.
    
           -N|--notify
    	   causes smbstatus to display registered file notifications
    
           -f|--fast
    	   causes smbstatus to not check if the status data is valid by checking if the processes that the
    	   status data refer to all still exist. This speeds up execution on busy systems and clusters but
    	   might display stale data of processes that died without cleaning up properly.
    
           -?|--help
    	   Print a summary of command line options.
    
           -u|--user=<username>
    	   selects information relevant to username only.
    
           -n|--numeric
    	   causes smbstatus to display numeric UIDs and GIDs instead of resolving them to names.

    AUTHOR
           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.
    
           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.
