Hi,
I'm currently doing this to get a list of all possible SMB mounts:
nmblookup -M -- - [grab list of master browsers]
for every master browser:
smbclient -L {MASTER BROWSER IP} -U user%pass
* Parse everything after "Workgroup.*Master" to get list of
workgroups and workgroup masters
for every found workgroup master:
smbclient -L {WORKGROUP MASTER IP} -U user%pass
* Parse everything between "Server.*Comment" and
"Workgroup.*Master" to get list of hosts
for every found host:
smbclient -L {HOST} -U user%pass
* Parse everything between "Sharename.*Type.*Comment" and
"Server.*Comment" to get available mounts
This mostly works, but has a couple of problems, such as
* smbclient -L some_ip -U user%pass apparently hangs for 10+ minutes
if some_ip belongs to a Windoze box with a paranoid firewall
[Tried with 2.2.8a, 3.0.0, 3.0.1pre1 and current CVS 3.0 branch]
* smbclient -L {WORKGROUP MASTER IP} -U user%pass doesn't always find
all machines in the workgroup, and sometimes finds machines that
have been turned off ages ago (I know this isn't samba's fault).
Is there a better way to get a list of available SMB mounts, or at least a
workaround for the long hangs?
