SMBINFO(1) SMBINFO(1) NAME smbinfo - Userspace helper to display SMB-specific file information for the Linux SMB client file system (CIFS) SYNOPSIS smbinfo [-v] [-h] [-V] {command} {file system object} DESCRIPTION This tool is part of the cifs-utils suite. smbinfo is a userspace helper program for the Linux SMB client file system (CIFS). It is intended to display SMB-specific file informations such as Security Descriptors and Quota. This tool works by making an CIFS_QUERY_INFO IOCTL call to the Linux SMB client which in turn issues a SMB Query Info request and returns the result. This differs from getcifsacl which uses extended file attributes. OPTIONS -v Print version number and exit. -V Verbose output. -h Print help explaining the command line options. COMMAND fileaccessinfo: Prints the FileAccessInformation class filealigninfo: Prints the FileAlignmentInformation class fileallinfo: Prints the FileAllInformation class filebasicinfo: Prints the FileBasicInformation class fileeainfo: Prints the FileEaInformation class filefsfullsizeinfo: Prints the FileFsFullSizeInformation class fileinternalinfo: Prints the FileInternalInformation class filemodeinfo: Prints the FileModeInformation class filepositioninfo: Prints the FilePositionInformation class filestandardinfo: Prints the FileStandardInformation class filestreaminfo: Prints the FileStreamInformation class fsctl-getobjid: Prints the ObjectID getcompression: Prints the compression setting for the file. setcompression -c : Sets the compression setting for the file. list-snapshots: Lists the previous versions of the volume that backs this file quota: Print the quota for the volume in the form - SID Length - Change Time - Quota Used - Quota Threshold - Quota Limit - SID secdesc: Print the security descriptor in the form - Revision - Control - Owner SID - Group SID - ACL - File types - File flags keys: Dump session id, encryption keys and decryption keys so that the SMB3 traffic of this mount can be decryped e.g. via wireshark (requires root). NOTES Kernel support for smbinfo utilities requires the CIFS_QUERY_INFO IOCTL which was initially introduced in the 4.20 kernel and is only implemented for mount points using SMB2 or above (see mount.cifs(8) vers option).
