.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
This tool is part of the \fBSamba\fR(7) suite\&.
.PP
The samba net utility is meant to work just like the net utility available for windows and DOS\&. The first argument should be used to specify the protocol to use when executing a certain command\&. ADS is used for ActiveDirectory, RAP is using for old (Win9x/NT3) clients and RPC can be used for NT4 and Windows 2000\&. If this argument is omitted, net will try to determine it automatically\&. Not all commands are available on all protocols\&.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.TP
\-h|\-\-help
Print a summary of command line options\&.
.TP
\-w target\-workgroup
Sets target workgroup or domain\&. You have to specify either this option or the IP address or the name of a server\&.
.TP
\-W workgroup
Sets client workgroup or domain
.TP
\-U user
User name to use
.TP
\-I ip\-address
IP address of target server to use\&. You have to specify either this option or a target workgroup or a target server\&.
.TP
\-p port
Port on the target server to connect to (usually 139 or 445)\&. Defaults to trying 445 first, then 139\&.
.TP
\-n <primary NetBIOS name>
This option allows you to override the NetBIOS name that Samba uses for itself\&. This is identical to setting the netbios name parameter in the \fIsmb\&.conf\fR file\&. However, a command line setting will take precedence over settings in \fIsmb\&.conf\fR\&.
.TP
\-s <configuration file>
The file specified contains the configuration details required by the server\&. The information in this file includes server\-specific information such as what printcap file to use, as well as descriptions of all the services that the server is to provide\&. See \fIsmb\&.conf\fR for more information\&. The default configuration file name is determined at compile time\&.
.TP
\-S server
Name of target server\&. You should specify either this option or a target workgroup or a target IP address\&.
.TP
\-l
When listing data, give more information on each item\&.
.TP
\-P
Make queries to the external server using the machine account of the local server\&.
.TP
\-d|\-\-debug=debuglevel
\fIdebuglevel\fR is an integer from 0 to 10\&. The default value if this parameter is not specified is zero\&.
The higher this value, the more detail will be logged to the log files about the activities of the server\&. At level 0, only critical errors and serious warnings will be logged\&. Level 1 is a reasonable level for day\-to\-day running \- it generates a small amount of information about operations carried out\&.
Levels above 1 will generate considerable amounts of log data, and should only be used when investigating a problem\&. Levels above 3 are designed for use only by developers and generate HUGE amounts of log data, most of which is extremely cryptic\&.
Note that specifying this parameter here will override the log level parameter in the \fIsmb\&.conf\fR file\&.
.SH "COMMANDS"
.SS "CHANGESECRETPW"
.PP
This command allows the Samba machine account password to be set from an external application to a machine account password that has already been stored in Active Directory\&. DO NOT USE this command unless you know exactly what you are doing\&. The use of this command requires that the force flag (\-f) be used also\&. There will be NO command prompt\&. Whatever information is piped into stdin, either by typing at the command line or otherwise, will be stored as the literal machine password\&. Do NOT use this without care and attention as it will overwrite a legitimate machine password without warning\&. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED\&.
