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.
