Description
The cifsmount command is used to mount remote shares on the local file
system. It mounts the share <share>from server <server> in the local file
system at <mountpoint>. The mountpoint must exist. You are prompted
for a password and the program uses the combination
username/password to log in to the server. If you are already logged in to
the given server, the password prompt is skipped. You can use the option
-N to suppress password prompting.
NOTE HP-UX does not support the SSL option.
Options
-c <
clientname

Sets the Netbios name of client. CIFS is based on
Netbios. Netbios requires that valid Netbios computer
names are supplied during the connection
establishment for the client and the server. The client
name is usually taken from the hostname of your
computer. If this does not work or if your computer's
Netbios name is different, you may supply the value to
be used with this parameter. This parameter is ignored
if the server is already connected.
