Example of pysmb

Question

Could you give me an example of using pysmb library to connect to some samba server? I\'ve read there\'s class smb.SMBConnection.SMBConnection(username, password, my_name, remot

Answer 1

For example you want to store a file via pysmb same as this:

from smb.SMBConnection import SMBConnection

file_obj = open('image.png', 'rb')

connection = SMBConnection(username=username,
                           password=password,
                           remote_name=remote_name,  # It's net bios  name
                           domain=domain,
                           use_ntlm_v2=True)

connection.connect(ip=host)  # The IP of file server

connection.storeFile(service_name=service_name,  # It's the name of shared folder
                     path=path,
                     file_obj=file_obj)
connection.close()

The SMBConnection class will allow you to access the files on the remote Samba server in blocking mode.

To retrieve the list of the files in a shared folder on the remote server,

from smb.SMBConnection import SMBConnection
conn = SMBConnection(userid, password, client_machine_name, remote_machine_name, use_ntlm_v2 = True)
conn.connect(server_ip, 139)
filelist = conn.listPath('shared_folder_name', '/')

The returned filelist will be a list of SharedFile instances.

More examples can be found in the tests/SMBConnectionTests folder in the pysmb source package.

Answer 3

I have been using pysmb for network shares enumeration lately, and found that it is not so easy to find good / complete examples. I'd refer you to a small script that I wrote for enumerating smb shares with pysmb: https://github.com/n3if/scripts/tree/master/smb_enumerator

For the sake of completeness, also, I post here the code snippet that accomplishes the connection and enumeration:

from smb import SMBConnection

try:
    conn = SMBConnection(username,password,'name',system_name,domain,use_ntlm_v2=True,
                         sign_options=SMBConnection.SIGN_WHEN_SUPPORTED,
                         is_direct_tcp=True) 
    connected = conn.connect(system_name,445)

    try:
        Response = conn.listShares(timeout=30)  # obtain a list of shares
        print('Shares on: ' + system_name)

        for i in range(len(Response)):  # iterate through the list of shares
            print("  Share[",i,"] =", Response[i].name)

            try:
                # list the files on each share
                Response2 = conn.listPath(Response[i].name,'/',timeout=30)
                print('    Files on: ' + system_name + '/' + "  Share[",i,"] =",
                                       Response[i].name)
                for i in range(len(Response2)):
                    print("    File[",i,"] =", Response2[i].filename)
            except:
                print('### can not access the resource')
    except:
        print('### can not list shares')    
except:
    print('### can not access the system')
