It should not be invoked directly by users. .PP smbmount searches the normal PATH for smbmnt. You must ensure that the smbmnt version in your path matches the smbmount used. .SH "OPTIONS" .TP \fB-r\fR mount the filesystem read-only .TP \fB-u uid\fR specify the uid that the files will be owned by .TP \fB-g gid\fR specify the gid that the files will be owned by .TP \fB-f mask\fR specify the octal file mask applied .TP \fB-d mask\fR specify the octal directory mask applied .TP \fB-o options\fR list of options that are passed as-is to smbfs, if this command is run on a 2.4 or higher Linux kernel. .SH "AUTHOR" .PP Volker Lendecke, Andrew Tridgell, Michael H. Warfield and others. .PP The current maintainer of smbfs and the userspace tools \fBsmbmount\fR, \fBsmbumount\fR, and \fBsmbmnt\fR is Urban Widmark <URL:mailto:urban@teststation.com>. The SAMBA Mailing list <URL:mailto:samba@samba.org> is the preferred place to ask questions regarding these programs. .PP The conversion of this manpage for Samba 2.2 was performed by Gerald Carter
