It is possible to set the mode for umount.cifs to setuid root (or equivalently update the /etc/permissions file) to allow non-root users to umount shares to directories for which they have write permission. The umount.cifs utility is typically not needed if unmounts need only be performed by root users, or if user mounts and unmounts can rely on specifying explicit entries in /etc/fstab See28 The umount\.cifs utility detaches the local directory 29 \fImount\-point\fR 30 from the corresponding UNC name (exported network resource) and frees the associated kernel resources\.
