2.2.4.61 SMB_COM_FIND_CLOSE (0x84)

  • Article

This command was introduced in the LAN Manager 1.0 dialect. This command is deprecated. New client implementations SHOULD use the SMB_COM_TRANSACTION2 subcommand TRANS2_FIND_FIRST2 (section 2.2.6.2) instead.

This command is used to close a directory search opened by SMB_COM_FIND. The initial SMB_COM_FIND request logically opens and initiates the search. Subsequent SMB_COM_FIND requests that present a valid ResumeKey continue the search. The SMB_COM_FIND_CLOSE closes the search, allowing the server to free any resources used to maintain the search context.

If the initial SMB_COM_FIND fails (returns an error), the search is not open, and this command SHOULD NOT be called to close it. This command SHOULD NOT be used to close a directory search opened by SMB_COM_SEARCH.

The format of this command is nearly identical to that of SMB_COM_SEARCH and SMB_COM_FIND, with the exception that the Reply field SMB_Data.DirectoryInformationData is never present.
