check_smb_share_AA

Project Notes

check_smb_share_AA is another plugin to check access to Windows Share for a specific user.

AA stands for Authorization - Authentication

This plugin will check not only if the share exists but it will check too if you're authorized to access it (share rights) and if you're using a valid authentication (user/password spelling in Centreon).

This plugin is a shell script.

Typically, the plugin will use smbclient to connect to a share and will do a dir command.
Doing a dir will completly valid the share access and authorization.
