This chapter provides details for the CIFS Client Commandline
Utilities.
The HP CIFSClient software package consists of the following
programs:
- cifsclient
Stop and start the CIFS client.
- cifsmount
Mount a directory from a remote server.
- cifslogin
Authenticates you to the remote server. You may
then use any shares already mounted by other users.
- cifsumount
The opposite of cifsmount.
It removes the local mountpoint and disconnects it from the server
if it is not mounted somewhere else.
- cifslogout
The opposite of cifslogin.
You cannot use any shares from the specified server after logging
out.
- cifslist
Lists connected servers, mountpoints, mounted shares, etc.
- mount_cifs
Mounts the CIFS filesystem.
- umount_cifs
Unmounts the CIFS filesystem.
Each of the utilities described above also accepts the options -h and -v if given
as the only parameter. The option -h prints
a short help to standard error and the option -v prints
the current version numbers to standard output.
