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, but it would certainly be problematic to make umount setuid root.</p></div><div class="refsect1" lang="en"><a name="id2478447"></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="id2478468"></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="id2478484"></a><h2>AUTHOR</h2><p>Volker Lendecke, Andrew Tridgell, Michael H.
