SMBUMOUNT(8)                                                      SMBUMOUNT(8)



NAME
       smbumount - smbfs umount for normal users

SYNOPSIS
       smbumount mount-point

DESCRIPTION
       With  this  program, normal users can unmount smb-filesystems, provided
       that it is suid root. smbumount 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, but it would
       certainly be problematic to make umount setuid root.

OPTIONS
       mount-point
              The directory to unmount.
