  41
  42         <para><application>gentest</application> is a utility for
  43                 detecting differences in behaviour between SMB servers.
  44                 It will run a random set of generic operations against
  45                 <parameter>//server1/share1</parameter> and then the same
  46                 random set against <parameter>//server2/share2</parameter>
  47                 and display the differences in the responses it gets.
  48         </para>
  49
  50         <para>
  51                 This utility is used by the Samba team to find differences in
  52                 behaviour between Samba and Windows servers.
