I'd like the ability to force an election using the SMBCONTROL image
that comes with the 2.2.7a package. It seems to run, but I can't seem
to guess the correct syntax. Here's what I've tried:
$ run DISK$PGM:[SAMBA.SOURCE.BIN]smbcontrol
Usage: smbcontrol [-d debuglevel] [-s configfile] [-i]
smbcontrol [-d debuglevel] [-s configfile] <destination>
<message-type> <
parameters>
<destination> is one of "nmbd", "smbd" or a process ID
<message-type> is one of: debug, force-election, ping, profile,
profilel
evel, debuglevel, printer-notify, close-share
$ run DISK$PGM:[SAMBA.SOURCE.BIN]smbcontrol nmbd force-election
%DCL-W-MAXPARM, too many parameters - reenter command with fewer parameters
\NMBD\
$ run DISK$PGM:[SAMBA.SOURCE.BIN]smbcontrol "nmbd" "force-election"
%DCL-W-MAXPARM, too many parameters - reenter command with fewer parameters
\"nmbd"\
$ smbcontrol :== $DISK$PGM:[SAMBA.SOURCE.BIN]SMBCONTROL.EXE
$ smbcontrol nmbd force-election
Can't find pid for nmbd
$ SHOW SYSTEM /PROC=NMBD

$ smbcontrol NMBD force-election
Can't find pid for nmbd
$ smbcontrol AE force-election
force-election can only be sent to nmbd
$ smbcontrol 000000AE force-election
force-election can only be sent to nmbd
$ smbcontrol "NMBD" force-election
Can't find pid for nmbd

Can anyone point out what I have to do? Thanks.
