+.SH NAME
+findsmb \- list info about machines that respond to SMB name queries on a subnet
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.sp
+\fBfindsmb\fR [ \fBsubnet broadcast address\fR ]
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+This perl script is part of the Sambasuite.
+.PP
+\fBfindsmb\fR is a perl script that
+prints out several pieces of information about machines
+on a subnet that respond to SMB name query requests.
+It uses \fB nmblookup(1)\fRto obtain this information.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.TP
+\fBsubnet broadcast address\fR
+Without this option, \fBfindsmb
+\fRwill probe the subnet of the machine where
+\fBfindsmb\fR is run. This value is passed
+to \fBnmblookup\fR as part of the
+-B option
+.SH "EXAMPLES"
+.PP
+The output of \fBfindsmb\fR lists the following
+information for all machines that respond to the initial
+\fBnmblookup\fR for any name: IP address, NetBIOS name,
+Workgroup name, operating system, and SMB server version.
+.PP
+There will be a '+' in front of the workgroup name for
+machines that are local master browsers for that workgroup. There
+will be an '*' in front of the workgroup name for
+machines that are the domain master browser for that workgroup.
+Machines that are running Windows, Windows 95 or Windows 98 will
+not show any information about the operating system or server
+version.
+.PP
+The command must be run on a system without \fBnmbd\fRrunning.
+If \fBnmbd\fR is running on the system, you will
+only get the IP address and the DNS name of the machine. To
+get proper responses from Windows 95 and Windows 98 machines,
+the command must be run as root.
+.PP
+For example running \fBfindsmb\fR on a machine
+without \fBnmbd\fR running would yield output similar
+to the following
+.sp
+.nf

+\fR.SH "AUTHOR"
+.PP
+The original Samba software and related utilities
+were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed
+by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar
+to the way the Linux kernel is developed.
+.PP
+The original Samba man pages were written by Karl Auer.
+The man page sources were converted to YODL format (another
+excellent piece of Open Source software, available at
+ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/ <URL:ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/>) and updated for the Samba 2.0
+release by Jeremy Allison. The conversion to DocBook for
+Samba 2.2 was done by Gerald Carter
