NAME
smbmount - mount an SMB filesystem
SYNOPSIS
smbmount service mountpoint [ -o options ]
DESCRIPTION
smbmount mounts a SMB filesystem. It is usually invoked as mount.smbfs from the mount(8) command when using the "-t smbfs" option. The kernel must support the smbfs filesystem.
Options to smbmount are specified as a comma separated list of key=value pairs.
NOTE: smbmount calls smbmnt to do the actual mount. You must make sure that smbmnt is in the path so that it can be found.
- username=<arg>
-
specifies the username to connect as. If this is not given then the environment variable USER is used. This option can also take the form user%password or user/workgroup or user/workgroup%password to allow the password and workgroup to be specified as part of the username.
- password=<arg>
-
specifies the SMB password. If not given then smbmount will prompt for a passeword, unless the guest option is given.
