HP CIFS Client A.02.01 Administrator's Guide

Commandline Utilities

cifsmount

Chapter 576

You can use this option safely only if you are the only

one who has physical or root access to your machine or

if you trust everyone who has this access. The HP CIFS

Client does not store unencrypted passwords in the

user database. If your server does not support

encrypted passwords, you cannot use this option.

Examples

The following command mounts the share entiredisk from the server

bigserver at the local mountpoint /mounts/bigserver and mounts as

read-only ﬁlesystem.

cifsmount -r //bigserver/entiredisk /mounts/bigserver

Files

Mounts info using the cifsmount -s command are stored in the HP

CIFS Client’s database ﬁle, /var/opt/cifsclient/cfgdb.ppl. The path to

this ﬁle is not conﬁgurable.
