Error on smbclient login on Red Hat

Linux and Unix-Like Linux
1

I have the smbclient installed and I am able to see information from the '-L' option. But when I attempt to login I'm getting the "NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME". I was hoping for help, because I'm not sure what is supposed to go into the smb.conf file. My goal is to transfer files from my Linux host to a windows share.

hldv0153 - name of the linux server
gaalpa1ihsshw11 - name of the windows server
aots\UFO\UFOUserCharts - name of the share
/opt/app/samba/files - linux directory housing files

This is the response from my "smbclient -L gaalpa1ihsshw11" command

This is what my smb.conf file consists of. I'm not sure if the netbios name is correct. Any help as to what to place into the smb.conf file is appreciated.

[global]
workgroup = ITTDOMAIN
netbios name = gaalpa1ihsshw11
server string = Samba Server %v
map to guest = Bad User
log file = /opt/app/d1car1m6/samba/var/log/samba/log.%m
max log size = 50
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
preferred master = No
local master = No
dns proxy = No
security = Domain

You have to login to a particular service (e.g. a share).
Because the Windows notation \\server\service makes problems in the shell, smbclients allow //server/service .

smbclient -d 1 '//gaalpa1ihsshw11/BMC$' -W ITTDOMAIN

I have added a moderate debug option and a domain (in case smbclient does not pick it from smb.conf).

Can you tell me what the BMC$ is doing ?

Actually I see, I didn't notice it was one of the paths. I am now successfully logging in. Thanks.
Is there a way to create a batch script, automating this using a perl script?
