How about this?

   dsmc q ba \\ct120\apps\ -nod=ct100

Hints:

a) Put your hyphenated options at the end of the command, e.g., after the
file spec as in my example above.

b) If you mean "all files", use "*" instead of "*.*". Otherwise "*.*" will
include only those files that have an extenstion. For example, a file named
\\ct120\apps\somefile will not be displayed when using "*.*".

c) If you mean "all files", you can omit the "*" altogether, and just end
the file spec with the backslash (as in my example above).

d) You only need -nodename if you need to override the client options file
(or default) nodename.

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
"Good enough" is the enemy of excellence.
