smbmap: Locate and download files [R]ecursively up to N levels depth, searching for filename pattern (regex), and excluding certain shares.
$ smbmap --host-file ${filename} -u ${username} -p ${password} -q -R --depth ${number} --exclude ${sharename} -A ${filepattern}

This command is using the tool 'smbmap' to perform actions related to the Server Message Block (SMB) protocol.
Here's a breakdown of the command and its options:
smbmap
: This is the name of the tool that will be executed.--host-file ${filename}
: The${filename}
is a placeholder for the name of a file that contains a list of hosts or IP addresses that you want to scan. This option allows you to specify the file to use.-u ${username}
: The${username}
is a placeholder for the username to authenticate with on the SMB shares. This option allows you to provide the username.-p ${password}
: The${password}
is a placeholder for the password to authenticate with on the SMB shares. This option allows you to provide the password.-q
: This option makes the output less verbose by suppressing extra information.-R
: This option tellssmbmap
to recursively enumerate the shares. It will list subdirectories and files within the shares.--depth ${number}
: The${number}
is a placeholder for the depth level of recursion. This option allows you to specify how many levels deepsmbmap
should go when enumerating shares.--exclude ${sharename}
: The${sharename}
is a placeholder for the name of the share that you want to exclude from enumeration. This option allows you to specify a share name to exclude.-A ${filepattern}
: The${filepattern}
is a placeholder for a file pattern or wildcard that determines which files to retrieve from the share. This option allows you to specify a file pattern for retrieval.
Overall, this command executes the smbmap
tool, providing various options to scan multiple hosts specified in a file, authenticate with a username and password, recursively enumerate shares up to a certain depth level, exclude a specific share, and retrieve files matching a certain pattern from the shares.

never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
