.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
command mounts a share from a remote server using SMB/CIFS protocol.
.Pp
The options are as follows:
.Bl -tag -width indent
.It Fl N
Do not ask for a password.
At run time,
.Nm
reads the
.Pa ~/Library/Preferences/nsmb.conf
file for additional configuration parameters and a password.
If no password is found,
.Nm
prompts for it.
.It Fl o 
Options passed to 
.Xr mount 2
are specified with the 
.Fl o 
option followed by a comma separated string of options. See the 
.Xr mount 8 
man page for possible options and their meanings.
All listed options are currently supported except for the ``force, update, strictatime, sync and [no]async'' options.
Additional options supported by the mount_smbfs are as follows:
.Bl -tag -width indent
.It nobrowse
This option indicates that the mount point should not be visible via the GUI (i.e., appear on the Desktop as a separate volume).
.It automounted
Set flags on the mountpoint to indicate that the volume has been mounted 
by the automounter.
.It nostreams
Don't use NTFS Streams even if they are supported by the server.
.It soft
Make the mount soft. Fail file system calls after a number of seconds.
.It nonotification, noforcenotify
Turn off using notifications for this volume.
.It nodatacache
Turn off using file data caching for this volume.
.It nomdatacache
Turn off using meta data caching for this volume.
.It sessionencrypt

.Pp
 Note that these permissions can differ from the rights granted by SMB server.

.It nopassprompt

.El
.It Fl f Ar mode , Fl d Ar mode

The
.Nm
command will use
.Ar server
as the NetBIOS name of remote computer,
.Ar user
as the remote user name and
.Ar share
as the resource name on a remote server.
.Ar Domain
and/or
.Ar password
may be specified here.  If
.Ar user
is omitted the logged in user id will be used.  Omitting
.Ar share
is an error when
.Nm
is run from the command line, otherwise a browsing dialogue is presented.
.It Ar path
Path to mount point.
.El
.Sh FILES
.Bl -tag -width ".Pa nsmb.conf" -compact

.Sh EXAMPLES
This example shows the proper url to use to mount the share PUBLIC from
the SMB server myserver :
.Bd -literal -offset indent
mkdir /smb/public
mount -t smbfs //username:userpass@myserver/PUBLIC /smb/public

.Ed
This example shows the proper url to use to mount the share PUBLIC from
the SMB server myserver as guest:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
mkdir /smb/public
mount -t smbfs //guest:@myserver/PUBLIC /smb/public
.Ed
\fBNote:\fP You should always use the system mount command and never call mount_smbfs directly.
