  41 They cause names to be resolved as follows :</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p><code class="constant">lmhosts</code>:
  42 Lookup an IP address in the Samba lmhosts file. If the
  43 line in lmhosts has no name type attached to the

  45 (see the <a class="citerefentry" href="lmhosts.5.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">lmhosts</span>(5)</span></a>      for details)
  46 then any name type matches for lookup.
  47 </p></li><li><p><code class="constant">host</code>:
  48 Do a standard host name to IP address resolution, using
  49 the system <code class="filename">/etc/hosts</code>, NIS, or DNS
  50 lookups. This method of name resolution is operating
  51 system dependent, for instance on IRIX or Solaris this
  52 may be controlled by the <code class="filename">/etc/nsswitch.conf
  53 </code> file).  Note that this method is only used
  54 if the NetBIOS name type being queried is the 0x20
  55 (server) name type, otherwise it is ignored.
  56 </p></li><li><p><code class="constant">wins</code>:
  57 Query a name with the IP address listed in the
  58 <em class="parameter"><code>wins server</code></em> parameter.  If no
  59 WINS server has been specified this method will be
  60 ignored.
  61 </p></li><li><p><code class="constant">bcast</code>:
  62 Do a broadcast on each of the known local interfaces
  63 listed in the <em class="parameter"><code>interfaces</code></em>
  64 parameter. This is the least reliable of the name
  65 resolution methods as it depends on the target host
  66 being on a locally connected subnet.

  76         smbsh</code> from the prompt and enter the username and password
  77         that authenticates you to the machine running the Windows NT
  78         operating system.

  82 <code class="prompt">Password: </code><strong class="userinput"><code>XXXXXXX</code></strong>
  83 </pre><p>Any dynamically linked command you execute from
  84         this shell will access the <code class="filename">/smb</code> directory
  85         using the smb protocol. For example, the command <code class="literal">ls /smb
  86         </code> will show a list of workgroups. The command
  87         <code class="literal">ls /smb/MYGROUP </code> will show all the machines in
  88         the  workgroup MYGROUP. The command
  89         <code class="literal">ls /smb/MYGROUP/&lt;machine-name&gt;</code> will show the share
  90         names for that machine. You could then, for example, use the <code class="literal">
  91         cd</code> command to change directories, <code class="literal">vi</code> to
  92         edit files, and <code class="literal">rcp</code>  to copy files.</p></div><div class="refsect1" lang="en"><a name="id2506489"></a><h2>VERSION</h2><p>This man page is correct for version 3 of the Samba suite.</p></div><div class="refsect1" lang="en"><a name="id2506500"></a><h2>BUGS</h2><p><code class="literal">smbsh</code> works by intercepting the standard
  93         libc calls with the dynamically loaded versions in <code class="filename">
  94         smbwrapper.o</code>. Not all calls have been "wrapped", so
  95         some programs may not function correctly under <code class="literal">smbsh
  96         </code>.</p><p>Programs which are not dynamically linked cannot make
  97         use of <code class="literal">smbsh</code>'s functionality. Most versions
  98         of UNIX have a <code class="literal">file</code> command that will
  99         describe how a program was linked.</p></div><div class="refsect1" lang="en"><a name="id2506547"></a><h2>SEE ALSO</h2><p><a class="citerefentry" href="smbd.8.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">smbd</span>(8)</span></a>, <a class="citerefentry" href="smb.conf.5.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">smb.conf</span>(5)</span></a></p></div><div class="refsect1" lang="en"><a name="id2506570"></a><h2>AUTHOR</h2><p>The original Samba software and related utilities
