It is intended for those who are somewhat familiar with Samba internals\&. .SH "OPTIONS" .PP \-h .RS 4 Get help information\&. .RE .PP \-k \fIkeyname\fR .RS 4 The \fB\-k\fR option restricts dumping to a single key, if found\&. .RE .PP \-e .RS 4 The \fB\-e\fR tries to dump out from a corrupt database\&. Naturally, such a dump is unreliable, at best\&. .RE .PP \-x .RS 4 The \fB\-x\fR changes the output data to a hex dump, from the default mix of ASCII and hex dump\&. .RE .SH "VERSION" .PP This man page is correct for version 3 of the Samba suite\&. .SH "AUTHOR" .PP The original Samba software and related utilities were created by Andrew Tridgell\&.
