37 <title>DESCRIPTION</title>
39 <para><application>masktest</application> is a utility for
40 detecting differences in behaviour between Samba's
41 own implementation and that of a remote server.
42 It will run generate random filenames/masks and
43 check if these match the same files they do on the remote file as
44 they do on the local server. It will display any differences it finds.
48 This utility is used by the Samba team to find differences in
49 behaviour between Samba and Windows servers.
55 <title>OPTIONS</title>
59 <term>-U user%pass</term>
61 Specify the user and password to use when logging on
62 on the shares. This parameter can be specified twice
63 (once for the first server, once for the second).
70 Seed the random number generator with the specified value.
