NAME
findsmb - list info about machines that respond to SMB name queries on a subnet
SYNOPSIS
findsmb [subnet broadcast address]
DESCRIPTION
This perl script is part of the samba(7) suite.
findsmb is a perl script that prints out several pieces of information about ma-
chines on a subnet that respond to SMB name query requests. It uses nmblookup(1)
and smbclient(1) to obtain this information.
OPTIONS
-r Controls whether findsmb takes bugs in Windows95 into account when trying to
find a Netbios name registered of the remote machine. This option is dis-
abled by default because it is specific to Windows 95 and Windows 95 ma-
chines only. If set, nmblookup(1) will be called with -B option.
subnet broadcast address
Without this option, findsmb will probe the subnet of the machine where-
findsmb(1) is run. This value is passed tonmblookup(1) as part of the -B op-
tion.
EXAMPLES
The output of findsmb lists the following information for all machines that respond
to the initialnmblookup for any name: IP address, NetBIOS name, Workgroup name, op-
erating system, and SMB server version.
There will be a ’+’ in front of the workgroup name for machines that are local mas-
ter browsers for that workgroup. There will be an ’*’ in front of the workgroup
name for machines that are the domain master browser for that workgroup. Machines
that are running Windows for Workgroups, Windows 95 or Windows 98 will not show any
information about the operating system or server version.
The command with -r option must be run on a system without nmbd(8)running. If nmbd
is running on the system, you will only get the IP address and the DNS name of the
machine. To get proper responses from Windows 95 and Windows 98 machines, the com-
mand must be run as root and with -r option on a machine without nmbd running.
For example, running findsmb without -r option set would yield output similar to
the following
IP ADDR NETBIOS NAME WORKGROUP/OS/VERSION

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, avail-
able 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.
