33 <title>DESCRIPTION
</title>
35 <para><command>smbmnt
</command> is a helper application used
36 by the smbmount program to do the actual mounting of SMB shares.
37 <command>smbmnt
</command> can be installed setuid root if you want
38 normal users to be able to mount their SMB shares.
</para>
40 <para>A setuid smbmnt will only allow mounts on directories owned
41 by the user, and that the user has write permission on.
</para>
43 <para>The
<command>smbmnt
</command> program is normally invoked
44 by
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>smbmount
</refentrytitle>
45 <manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>. It should not be invoked directly by users.
</para>
47 <para>smbmount searches the normal PATH for smbmnt. You must ensure
48 that the smbmnt version in your path matches the smbmount used.
