SMBCQUOTAS(1)
NAME
smbcquotas - Set or get QUOTAs of NTFS 5 shares
SYNOPSIS
smbcquotas {//server/share} [-u user] [-L] [-F] [-S QUOTA_SET_COMMAND] [-n]
[-t] [-v] [-d debuglevel] [-s configfile] [-l logdir] [-V]
[-U username] [-N] [-k] [-A]
DESCRIPTION
This tool is part of the samba(7) suite.
The smbcquotas program manipulates NT Quotas on SMB file shares.
OPTIONS
The following options are available to the smbcquotas program.
-u user
Specifies the user of whom the quotas are get or set. By default the
current user's username will be used.
-L Lists all quota records of the share.
-F Show the share quota status and default limits.
-S QUOTA_SET_COMMAND
This command sets/modifies quotas for a user or on the share, depend-
ing on the QUOTA_SET_COMMAND parameter which is described later.
-n This option displays all QUOTA information in numeric format. The de-
fault is to convert SIDs to names and QUOTA limits to a readable
string format.
-t Don't actually do anything, only validate the correctness of the argu-
ments.
-v Be verbose.
-h|--help
Print a summary of command line options.
-V Prints the program version number.
-s <configuration file>
The file specified contains the configuration details required by the
server. The information in this file includes server-specific informa-
tion such as what printcap file to use, as well as descriptions of all
the services that the server is to provide. See smb.conf for more in-
formation. The default configuration file name is determined at com-
pile time.
-d|--debug=debuglevel
debuglevel 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 parameter
in the smb.conf file.
-l|--logfile=logdirectory
Base directory name for log/debug files. The extension ".progname"
will be appended (e.g. log.smbclient, log.smbd, etc...). The log file
is never removed by the client.
-N If specified, this parameter suppresses the normal password prompt
from the client to the user. This is useful when accessing a service
that does not require a password.
Unless a password is specified on the command line or this parameter
is specified, the client will request a password.
-k Try to authenticate with kerberos. Only useful in an Active Directory
environment.
-A|--authentication-file=filename
This option allows you to specify a file from which to read the user-
name and password used in the connection. The format of the file is
username = <value>
password = <value>
domain = <value>
Make certain that the permissions on the file restrict access from
unwanted users.
-U|--user=username[%password]
Sets the SMB username or username and password.
If %password is not specified, the user will be prompted. The client
will first check the USER environment variable, then the LOGNAME vari-
able and if either exists, the string is uppercased. If these environ-
mental variables are not found, the username GUEST is used.
A third option is to use a credentials file which contains the plain-
text of the username and password. This option is mainly provided for
scripts where the admin does not wish to pass the credentials on the
command line or via environment variables. If this method is used,
make certain that the permissions on the file restrict access from
unwanted users. See the -A for more details.
Be cautious about including passwords in scripts. Also, on many sys-
tems the command line of a running process may be seen via the ps com-
mand. To be safe always allow rpcclient to prompt for a password and
type it in directly.
QUOTA_SET_COMAND
The format of an ACL is one or more ACL entries separated by either commas
or newlines. An ACL entry is one of the following:
for setting user quotas for the user specified by -u or the current user-
name:
UQLIM:<username>:<softlimit>/<hardlimit>
for setting the default quotas for a share:
FSQLIM:<softlimit>/<hardlimit>
for changing the share quota settings:
FSQFLAGS:QUOTA_ENABLED/DENY_DISK/LOG_SOFTLIMIT/LOG_HARD_LIMIT
EXIT STATUS
The smbcquotas program sets the exit status depending on the success or
otherwise of the operations performed. The exit status may be one of the
following values.
If the operation succeeded, smbcquotas returns an exit status of 0. If
smbcquotas couldn't connect to the specified server, or when there was an
error getting or setting the quota(s), an exit status of 1 is returned. If
there was an error parsing any command line arguments, an exit status of 2
is returned.
VERSION
This man page is correct for version 3.0 of the Samba suite.
AUTHOR
The original Samba software and related utilities were created by Andrew
Tridgell. Samba is now developed by the Samba Team as an Open Source pro-
ject similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed.
smbcquotas was written by Stefan Metzmacher.
