smbclient:tldr:dd0b1
This command is used to list the shared folders on a Windows server using SMB (Server Message Block) protocol without providing a password.
Here's how the command works:
-
smbclient
: This is the command-line client utility for accessing SMB shares on remote servers. -
--list=${server}
: This flag specifies the server you want to list the shared folders from. The${server}
is a placeholder that should be replaced with the actual IP address or hostname of the server you want to access. -
--no-pass
: This flag tellssmbclient
to connect to the server without providing a password. In this case, it assumes that the shared folders on the server have been configured to allow anonymous access or the current user has the necessary permissions to access the shares without a password.
By running this command, smbclient
will establish a connection to the specified server and retrieve a list of shared folders that are accessible without a password.
