NAME
       stopsmb - Stop the CIFS Server.

SYNOPSIS
       stopsmb [-n or --nmbd] [-s or --smbd] [-w or --winbind] [-h or --help]
	[-c <configuration file>]

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

       stopsmb is a shell script to stop Samba. If Samba is already down,
       stopsmb will report the status of Samba and return a non-zero value. If
       stopsmb is unsuccessful in bringing down the Samba server, it will
       report this also and return a non-zero value. Upon successful
       completion stopsmb returns a zero.

       Use of this utility will cause a message to be logged to the user
       facility in the system log, unless Samba was already down.

       For example:

	   stopsmb
		Stop smbd and nmbd only.
	   stopsmb -n
	   stopsmb --nmbd
		Stop nmbd only.
	   stopsmb -s
	   stopsmb --smbd
		Stop smbd only.
	   stopsmb -w
	   stopsmb --winbind
		Stop smbd and nmbd as well as winbindd, if they are running.
	   stopsmb -h
	   stopsmb --help
		Display help message.
	   stopsmb -c <configuration file>
		   Stop only processes associated with the specified configuration
		     file.
