Command to monitor connections... 1

[MattWray]

Hello,
I have a RH file server running Samba. Is there a command I can use to see if there are any current connections or open files? And to see who is connected, and possible send them a message that I will be shutting down the server in 5 minutes? Thanks,

Not too sure, but try looking for the log file you want in /var/log/samba/. If you do find the log file that you were looking for, then do a:

'tail -vf /var/log/samba/nameoffile.log'

# smbstatus

# smbclient -M "message" Not sure if you can send to everyone.

have you typing "top" at a command prompt to see all the current processes on your system?
