-.TH TESTPARM 1 testparm testparm
-.SH NAME
-testparm \- check an smbd configuration file for internal correctness
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B testparm
-[
-.I configfilename
-[
-.I hostname
-.I hostIP
-]
-]
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-This program is part of the Samba suite.
-
-.B testparm
-is a very simple test program to check an
-.B smbd
-configuration
-file for internal correctness. 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.
