+findsmb \- list info about machines that respond to SMB name queries on a subnet
+.PP

+.PP
+\fBfindsmb\fP [subnet broadcast address]
+.PP
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+This perl script is part of the \fBSamba\fP suite\&.
+.PP
+\fBfindsmb\fP is a perl script that prints out several pieces
+of information about machines on a subnet that respond to SMB
+name query requests\&.
+It uses \fBnmblookup\fP and
+\fBsmbclient\fP to obtain this information\&.
+.PP
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.PP
+.IP
+.IP "\fBsubnet broadcast address\fP"
+Without this option, \fBfindsmb\fP
+will probe the subnet of the machine where \fBfindsmb\fP is run\&.
+This value is passed to \fBnmblookup\fP as part of the \fB-B\fP
+option
+.IP
+.PP
+.SH "EXAMPLES"
+.PP
+The output of \fBfindsmb\fP lists the following information for all
+machines that respond to the initial \fBnmblookup\fP for any name:
+IP address, NetBIOS name, Workgroup name, operating system, and
+SMB server version\&.
+.PP
+There will be a "+" in front of the workgroup name for machines that are
+local master 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, Windows 95 or Windows 98
+will not show any information about the operating system or server version\&.
+.PP
+The command must be run on a system without
+\fBnmbd\fP running\&. If \fBnmbd\fP 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 command must be run as root\&.
+.PP
+For example running:
+.PP
+\f(CWfindsmb\fP
+.PP
+on a machine without \fBnmbd\fP running would yield output similar
+to the following
+.PP
+
+.DS
+
+
+IP ADDR NETBIOS NAME WORKGROUP/OS/VERSION

+\fBsmbcontrol\fP destination message-type parameters
+.PP
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+This program is part of the \fBSamba\fP suite\&.
+.PP
+\fBsmbcontrol\fP is a very small program, which sends messages to a \fBsmbd\fP
+or a \fBnmbd\fP daemon running on the system\&.
+.PP
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.PP
+.IP
+.IP "\fB-i\fP"
+Run interactively\&. Individual commands of the form
+destination message-type parameters
+can be entered on STDIN\&. An empty command line will quit the program\&.
+.IP
+.IP "\fBdestination\fP"
+is one of "nmbd", "smbd" or a process ID
+.IP
+The \fBsmbd\fP destination causes the message to be "broadcast" to all
+smbd daemons\&.
+.IP
+The \fBnmbd\fP destination causes the message to be sent to the nmbd
+daemon specified in the \fBnmbd\&.pid\fP file\&.
+.IP
+If a single process ID is given, the message is sent to only that
+process\&.
+.IP
+.IP "\fBmessage-type\fP"
+is one of: debug, force-election, or ping\&.
+.IP
+The \fBdebug\fP message-type allows the debug level to be set to the value
+specified by the parameter\&. This can be sent to any of the destinations\&.
+.IP
+The \fBforce-election\fP message-type can only be sent to the \fBnmbd\fP
+destination\&. This message causes the \fBnmbd\fP daemon to force a
+new browse master election\&.
+.IP
+The \fBping\fP message-type sends the number of "ping" messages specified
+by the parameter and waits for the same number of
+reply "pong" messages\&. This can be sent to any of the destinations\&.
+.IP
+.IP "\fBparameters\fP"
+is any parameters required for the message-type
