SMBMOUNT(8)                                           SMBMOUNT(8)


NAME

smbmount - mount an SMB filesystem

SYNOPSIS

Please check the man pages smbmount-2.2.x(8) and smb- mount-2.0.x(8) for specific details (syntax depends on whether you are running a 2.0.x or a 2.2.x kernel).

DESCRIPTION

The are two versions of the smbmount command. One is called smbmount-2.2.x and the other one is called smb- mount-2.0.x. Two versions are required because of inter- nal changes inside the Linux kernel that prevent the use of a single binary for different kernel versions. /usr/bin/smbmount is actually a wrapper script that deter- mines the version of the kernel currently running and calls the appropiate binary (smbmount-2.0.x or smb- mount-2.2.x). The wrapper script /usr/bin/smbmount just passes directly all the arguments it receives to the appropiate binary, so you still need to check the correct syntax in the corre- sponding man page.
