.PP 
smbmnt is a helper application used by the smbmount program to do the
actual mounting of SMB shares\&. smbmnt is meant to be installed setuid
root so that normal users can mount their smb shares\&. It checks
whether the user has write permissions on the mount point and then
mounts the directory\&.
.PP 
The smbmnt program is normally invoked by smbmount\&. It should not be
invoked directly by users\&.
