  43         <title>DESCRIPTION</title>
  44
  45         <para><application>gentest</application> is a utility for
  46                 detecting differences in behaviour between SMB servers.
  47                 It will run a random set of generic operations against
  48                 <parameter>//server1/share1</parameter> and then the same
  49                 random set against <parameter>//server2/share2</parameter>
  50                 and display the differences in the responses it gets.
  51         </para>
  52
  53         <para>
  54                 This utility is used by the Samba team to find differences in
  55                 behaviour between Samba and Windows servers.
