If this program reports no problems, you can use -the configuration file with confidence that -.B smbd -will successfully -load the configuration file. - -Note that this is NOT a guarantee that the services specified in the -configuration file will be available or will operate as expected. - -If the optional host name and host IP address are specified on the -command line, this test program will run through the service entries -reporting whether the specified host has access to each service. -.SH OPTIONS -.I configfilename - -.RS 3 -This is the name of the configuration file to check. -.RE - -.I hostname - -.RS 3 -This is the name of the host to check access on. - -If this parameter is supplied, the -.I hostIP -parameter must also be supplied, or strange things may happen. -.RE - -.I hostIP - -.RS 3 -This is the IP number of the host specified in the previous parameter. - -This number must be supplied if the -.I hostname -parameter is supplied, or strange things may happen. -.RE -.SH FILES -.B smb.conf -.RS 3 -This is usually the name of the configuration file used by -.BR smbd . -.RE -.SH ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES -Not applicable. -.SH INSTALLATION -The location of the server and its support files is a matter for individual -system administrators. The following are thus suggestions only. - -It is recommended that the -.B testparm -program be installed under the /usr/local/samba hierarchy, in a directory readable -by all, writeable only by root. The program itself should be executable by all. -The program should NOT be setuid or setgid! -.SH VERSION -This man page is (mostly) correct for version 1.9.00 of the Samba suite, plus some -of the recent patches to it. These notes will necessarily lag behind -development of the software, so it is possible that your version of -the program has extensions or parameter semantics that differ from or are not -covered by this man page. Please notify these to the address below for -rectification. -.SH SEE ALSO -.BR smb.conf (5), -.BR smbd (8) -.SH DIAGNOSTICS -The program will issue a message saying whether the configuration file loaded -OK or not. This message may be preceded by errors and warnings if the file -did not load. If the file was loaded OK, the program then dumps all known -service details to stdout. - -If a host name is specified but no host IP number, all bets are off. - -Other messages are self-explanatory. -.SH BUGS -None known. -.SH CREDITS -The original Samba software and related utilities were created by -Andrew Tridgell (samba-bugs@samba.anu.edu.au). Andrew is also the Keeper -of the Source for this project. - -The -.B testparm -program and this man page were written by Karl Auer. Bug reports to -samba-bugs@anu.edu.au. - -See -.BR samba (7) -for a full list of contributors and details on how to -submit bug reports, comments etc. |
