smbmnt - helper utility for mounting SMB filesystems


SYNOPSIS

       smbmnt mount-point [ -s <share> ]  [ -r ]  [ -u <uid> ]  [
       -g <gid> ]  [ -f <mask> ]  [ -d <mask> ]  [ -o <options> ]


DESCRIPTION

       smbmnt  is  a helper application used by the smbmount pro­
       gram to do the actual mounting of SMB shares.   smbmnt  is
       meant to be installed setuid root so that normal users can
       mount their SMB shares. It checks  whether  the  user  has
       write  permissions  on the mount point and then mounts the
       directory.

       The smbmnt program is normally invoked by smbmount(8)
