MOUNT_SMBFS(8) FreeBSD System Manager's Manual MOUNT_SMBFS(8) NAME mount_smbfs -- mounts a shared resource from an SMB file server SYNOPSIS mount_smbfs [-E cs1:cs2] [-I host] [-L locale] [-M crights:srights] [-N] [-O cowner:cgroup/sowner:sgroup] [-R retrycount] [-T timeout] [-W workgroup] [-c case] [-d mode] [-f mode] [-g gid] [-n opt] [-u uid] //user@server/share node DESCRIPTION The mount_smbfs command mounts a share from a remote server using SMB/CIFS protocol. The options are: -E cs1:cs2 Specifies local (cs1) and server's (cs2) character sets. -I host Do not use NetBIOS name resolver and connect directly to host, which can be either a valid DNS name or an IP address. -L locale Use locale for lower/upper case conversion routines. Set the locale for case conversion. By default mount_smbfs tries to use an environment variable LC_* to determine it. -M crights:srights Assign access rights to the newly created connection. See nsmb(8) for theory. -N Do not ask for a password. At run time, mount_smbfs reads the ~/.nsmbrc file for additional configuration parameters and a password. If no password is found the mount_smbfs prompts for it. -O cowner:cgroup/sowner:sgroup Assign owner/group attributes to the newly created connection. See nsmb(8) for theory. -R retrycount How many retries should be done before the SMB requester decides to drop the connection. -T timeout Timeout in seconds for each request. -W workgroup This option specifies the workgroup to be used in the authentica- tion request. -c case Set a case option which affects name representation. case can be one of the following: Value Meaning l All existing file names converted to lower case. Newly created file gets a lower case. u All existing file names converted to upper case. Newly created file gets an upper case unde. -f mode, -d mode Specify permissions that should be assigned to files and directo- ries. The values must be specified as octal numbers. Default value for the file mode is taken from mount point, default value for the dir mode adds execute permission where the file mode gives read permission. Note that these permissions can differ from the rights granted by SMB server. -u uid, -g gid User id and group id assigned to files. The default is owner and group id from directory where the volume is mounted. //user@server/share The mount_smbfs command will use server as the NetBIOS name of remote computer, user as the remote user name and share as the resource name on a remote server. node Path to mount point. FILES ~/.nsmbrc Keeps static parameters for connections and other informa- tion. See ./examples/dot.nsmbrc for details. EXAMPLES The following examples illustrate how to connect to a SMB server SAMBA as user GUEST and mount shares PUBLIC and TMP: mount_smbfs -I samba.mydomain.com //guest@samba/public /smb/public mount_smbfs -I 192.168.20.3 -E koi8-r:cp866 //guest@samba/tmp /smb/tmp It is possible to use fstab(5) for smbfs mounts: //guest@samba/public /smb/public smbfs rw,noauto 0 0 BUGS Please report bugs to the author.
