NAME
       smbmnt - helper utility for mounting SMB filesystems

SYNOPSIS
       smbmnt  {mount-point}  [-s<share>] [-r] [-u<uid>] [-g<gid>] [-f<mask>]
	[-d<mask>] [-o<options>] [-h]

DESCRIPTION
       smbmnt is a helper application used by the smbmount program to do  the
       actual mounting of SMB shares.  smbmnt can be installed setuid root if
       you want normal users to be able to mount their SMB shares.

       A setuid smbmnt will only allow mounts on  directories  owned  by  the
       user, and that the user has write permission on.

       The  smbmnt  program is normally invoked by smbmount(8). It should not
       be invoked directly by users.

       smbmount searches the normal PATH for smbmnt. You must ensure that the
       smbmnt version in your path matches the smbmount used.

	  mount the filesystem read-only

       -u uid

       -f mask
