Does anyone know how I can get smbclient to display a directory listing a page at a time (eg "ls | more")? "ls" and "dir" give me the last ~10 files. The man page is useless.

I use the terminal... no gui.

Thanks guys

How about mounting the Samba share as a filesystem and then using your usual command line tools?

i was hoping there was a switch, but smbmount works well

thanks

Yeah, I'd agree w/ ratbastid.. mount it first.
