	provided that it is suid root.  <code class="literal">smbumount</code> has 
	been written to give normal Linux users more control over their 
	resources. It is safe to install this program suid root, because only 
	the user who has mounted a filesystem is allowed to unmount it again.  
	For root it is not necessary to use smbumount. The normal umount 
	program works perfectly well.</p><p>WARNING: <code class="literal">smbumount</code> is deprecated and not
        maintained any longer. <code class="literal">umount.cifs</code> 
        should be used instead of <code class="literal">smbumount</code>.</p></div><div class="refsect1" lang="en"><a name="id259553"></a><h2>OPTIONS</h2><div class="variablelist"><dl><dt><span class="term">mount-point</span></dt><dd><p>The directory to unmount.</p></dd></dl></div></div><div class="refsect1" lang="en"><a name="id259575"></a><h2>SEE ALSO</h2><p><a href="smbmount.8.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">smbmount</span>(8)</span></a></p></div><div class="refsect1" lang="en"><a name="id259590"></a><h2>AUTHOR</h2><p>Volker Lendecke, Andrew Tridgell, Michael H.
