DESCRIPTION
smbtorture is a testsuite that runs several tests against a SMB server.
All tests are known to succeed against a Windows 2003 server (?).
Smbtorture's primary goal is finding differences in implementations of
the SMB protocol and testing SMB servers.
Any number of tests can be specified on the command-line. If no tests
are specified, all tests are run.
- If no arguments are specified at all, all available options and tests
are listed. - Binding string format
- The binding string format is:
- TRANSPORT:host[flags]
- Where TRANSPORT is either ncacn_np for SMB, ncacn_ip_tcp for RPC/TCP or ncalrpc for local connections.
- 'host' is an IP or hostname or netbios name. If the binding string
identifies the server side of an endpoint, 'host' may be an empty
string. - 'flags' can include a SMB pipe name if using the ncacn_np transport or
a TCP port number if using the ncacn_ip_tcp transport, otherwise they
will be auto-determined. - other recognised flags are:
- sign
enable ntlmssp signing
- seal
enable ntlmssp sealing
- connect
enable rpc connect level auth (auth, but no sign or seal)
- validate
enable the NDR validator
- print
enable debugging of the packets
- bigendian
use bigendian RPC
- padcheck
check reply data for non-zero pad bytes
- For example, these all connect to the samr pipe:
- o ncacn_np:myserver
- o ncacn_np:myserver[samr]
- o ncacn_np:myserver[\\pipe\\samr]
- o ncacn_np:myserver[/pipe/samr]
- o ncacn_np:myserver[samr,sign,print]
- o ncacn_np:myserver[\\pipe\\samr,sign,seal,bigendian]
- o ncacn_np:myserver[/pipe/samr,seal,validate]
- o ncacn_np:
- o ncacn_np:[/pipe/samr]
- o ncacn_ip_tcp:myserver
- o ncacn_ip_tcp:myserver[1024]
- o ncacn_ip_tcp:myserver[1024,sign,seal]
- o ncalrpc:
- UNC Format
- The UNC format is:
- //server/share
OPTIONS
- -d debuglevel
- Use the specified Samba debug level. A higher debug level means
more output. - -U user%pass
- Use the specified username/password combination when logging in to a remote server.
- -k
- Use kerberos when authenticating.
- -W workgroup
- Use specified name as our workgroup name.
- -n netbios_name
- Use specified name as our NetBIOS name.
- -O socket_options
- Use specified socket options, equivalent of the smb.conf option
"socket options". See the smb.conf(5) manpage for details. - -m max_protocol
- Specify the maximum SMB dialect that should be used. Possible
values are: CORE, COREPLUS, LANMAN1, LANMAN2, NT1 - -s seed
- Initialize the randomizer using seed as seed.
- -L
- Use oplocks.
- -X
- Enable dangerous tests. Use with care! This might crash your
server... - -t timelimit
- Specify the NBENCH time limit in seconds. Defaults to 600.
- -p ports
- Specify ports to connect to.
- -c file
- Read NBENCH commands from file instead of from CLIENT.TXT.
- -A
- Show not just OK or FAILED but more detailed output. Used only by
DENY test at the moment. - -C filename
- Load a list of UNC names from the specified filename. Smbtorture
instances will connect to a random host from this list. - -N numprocs
- Specify number of smbtorture processes to launch.
- -o num_operations
- Number of times some operations should be tried before assuming
they're output is consistent (default:100). - -e num_files
- Number of entries to use in certain tests (such as creating X
files) (default: 1000). - -f max_failures
- Number of failures before aborting a test (default: 1).
