DESCRIPTION
       This tool is part of the samba(7) suite.

       The smbcacls program manipulates NT Access Control Lists (ACLs) on SMB
       file shares. An ACL is comprised zero or more Access Control Entries
       (ACEs), which define access restrictions for a specific user or group.

OPTIONS
       The following options are available to the smbcacls program. The format
       of ACLs is described in the section ACL FORMAT

       -a|--add acl
	   Add the entries specified to the ACL. Existing access control
	   entries are unchanged.

       -M|--modify acl
	   Modify the mask value (permissions) for the ACEs specified on the
	   command line. An error will be printed for each ACE specified that
	   was not already present in the object's ACL.

       -D|--delete acl
	   Delete any ACEs specified on the command line. An error will be
	   printed for each ACE specified that was not already present in the
	   object's ACL.

       -S|--set acl
	   This command sets the ACL on the object with only what is specified
	   on the command line. Any existing ACL is erased. Note that the ACL
	   specified must contain at least a revision, type, owner and group
	   for the call to succeed.

       -C|--chown name
	   The owner of a file or directory can be changed to the name given
	   using the -C option. The name can be a sid in the form S-1-x-y-z or
	   a name resolved against the server specified in the first argument.

	   This command is a shortcut for -M OWNER:name.

       -G|--chgrp name
	   The group owner of a file or directory can be changed to the name
	   given using the -G option. The name can be a sid in the form
	   S-1-x-y-z or a name resolved against the server specified n the
	   first argument.

	   This command is a shortcut for -M GROUP:name.

       -I|--inherit allow|remove|copy
	   Set or unset the windows "Allow inheritable permissions" check box
	   using the -I option. To set the check box pass allow. To unset the
	   check box pass either remove or copy. Remove will remove all
	   inherited acls. Copy will copy all the inherited acls.

       --numeric
	   This option displays all ACL information in numeric format. The
	   default is to convert SIDs to names and ACE types and masks to a
	   readable string format.

       -m|--max-protocol PROTOCOL_NAME
	   This allows the user to select the highest SMB protocol level that
	   smbcacls will use to connect to the server. By default this is set
	   to NT1, which is the highest available SMB1 protocol. To connect
	   using SMB2 or SMB3 protocol, use the strings SMB2 or SMB3
	   respectively. Note that to connect to a Windows 2012 server with
	   encrypted transport selecting a max-protocol of SMB3 is required.

       -t|--test-args
	   Don't actually do anything, only validate the correctness of the
	   arguments.

       --query-security-info FLAGS
	   The security-info flags for queries.

       --set-security-info FLAGS
	   The security-info flags for queries.

       --sddl
	   Output and input acls in sddl format.

       --domain-sid SID
	   SID used for sddl processing.

       -d|--debuglevel=level
	   level is an integer from 0 to 10. The default value if this
	   parameter is not specified is 0.

	   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 log
	   level parameter in the smb.conf file.

       -V|--version
	   Prints the program version number.

       -s|--configfile=<configuration file>
	   The file specified contains the configuration details required by
	   the server. The information in this file includes server-specific
	   information 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 information. The default configuration file name
	   is determined at compile time.

       -l|--log-basename=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.

       --option=<name>=<value>
	   Set the smb.conf(5) option "<name>" to value "<value>" from the
	   command line. This overrides compiled-in defaults and options read
	   from the configuration file.

       -N|--no-pass
	   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.

	   If a password is specified on the command line and this option is
	   also defined the password on the command line will be silently
	   ingnored and no password will be used.

       -k|--kerberos
	   Try to authenticate with kerberos. Only useful in an Active
	   Directory environment.

       -C|--use-ccache
	   Try to use the credentials cached by winbind.

       -A|--authentication-file=filename
	   This option allows you to specify a file from which to read the
	   username 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 variable and if either exists, the string is uppercased. If
	   these environmental variables are not found, the username GUEST is
	   used.

	   A third option is to use a credentials file which contains the
	   plaintext 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
	   systems the command line of a running process may be seen via the
	   ps command. To be safe always allow rpcclient to prompt for a
	   password and type it in directly.

       -S|--signing on|off|required
	   Set the client signing state.

       -P|--machine-pass
	   Use stored machine account password.

       -e|--encrypt
	   This command line parameter requires the remote server support the
	   UNIX extensions or that the SMB3 protocol has been selected.
	   Requests that the connection be encrypted. Negotiates SMB
	   encryption using either SMB3 or POSIX extensions via GSSAPI. Uses
	   the given credentials for the encryption negotiation (either
	   kerberos or NTLMv1/v2 if given domain/username/password triple.
	   Fails the connection if encryption cannot be negotiated.

       --pw-nt-hash
	   The supplied password is the NT hash.

       -n|--netbiosname <primary NetBIOS name>
	   This option allows you to override the NetBIOS name that Samba uses
	   for itself. This is identical to setting the netbios name parameter
	   in the smb.conf file. However, a command line setting will take
	   precedence over settings in smb.conf.

       -i|--scope <scope>
	   This specifies a NetBIOS scope that nmblookup will use to
	   communicate with when generating NetBIOS names. For details on the
	   use of NetBIOS scopes, see rfc1001.txt and rfc1002.txt. NetBIOS
	   scopes are very rarely used, only set this parameter if you are the
	   system administrator in charge of all the NetBIOS systems you
	   communicate with.

       -W|--workgroup=domain
	   Set the SMB domain of the username. This overrides the default
	   domain which is the domain defined in smb.conf. If the domain
	   specified is the same as the servers NetBIOS name, it causes the
	   client to log on using the servers local SAM (as opposed to the
	   Domain SAM).

       -O|--socket-options socket options
	   TCP socket options to set on the client socket. See the socket
	   options parameter in the smb.conf manual page for the list of valid
	   options.

       -?|--help
	   Print a summary of command line options.

       --usage
	   Display brief usage message.

ACL FORMAT
       The format of an ACL is one or more entries separated by either commas
       or newlines. An ACL entry is one of the following:

	   REVISION:<revision number>
	   OWNER:<sid or name>
	   GROUP:<sid or name>
	   ACL:<sid or name>:<type>/<flags>/<mask>

       The revision of the ACL specifies the internal Windows NT ACL revision
       for the security descriptor. If not specified it defaults to 1. Using
       values other than 1 may cause strange behaviour.

       The owner and group specify the owner and group sids for the object. If
       a SID in the format S-1-x-y-z is specified this is used, otherwise the
       name specified is resolved using the server on which the file or
       directory resides.

       ACEs are specified with an "ACL:" prefix, and define permissions
       granted to an SID. The SID again can be specified in S-1-x-y-z format
       or as a name in which case it is resolved against the server on which
       the file or directory resides. The type, flags and mask values
       determine the type of access granted to the SID.

       The type can be either ALLOWED or DENIED to allow/deny access to the
       SID. The flags values are generally zero for file ACEs and either 9 or
       2 for directory ACEs. Some common flags are:

	      ·	  #define SEC_ACE_FLAG_OBJECT_INHERIT 0x1

	      ·	  #define SEC_ACE_FLAG_CONTAINER_INHERIT 0x2

	      ·	  #define SEC_ACE_FLAG_NO_PROPAGATE_INHERIT 0x4

	      ·	  #define SEC_ACE_FLAG_INHERIT_ONLY 0x8

       At present, flags can only be specified as decimal or hexadecimal
       values.

       The mask is a value which expresses the access right granted to the
       SID. It can be given as a decimal or hexadecimal value, or by using one
       of the following text strings which map to the NT file permissions of
       the same name.

	      ·	  R - Allow read access

	      ·	  W - Allow write access

	      ·	  X - Execute permission on the object

	      ·	  D - Delete the object

	      ·	  P - Change permissions

	      ·	  O - Take ownership

       The following combined permissions can be specified:

	      ·	  READ - Equivalent to 'RX' permissions

	      ·	  CHANGE - Equivalent to 'RXWD' permissions

	      ·	  FULL - Equivalent to 'RWXDPO' permissions

EXIT STATUS
       The smbcacls 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, smbcacls returns and exit status of 0. If
       smbcacls couldn't connect to the specified server, or there was an
       error getting or setting the ACLs, an exit status of 1 is returned. If
       there was an error parsing any command line arguments, an exit status
       of 2 is returned.
