Description Noël Köthe 2005-10-06 07:56:29 UTC 
Hello,

the smbmount(8) has a problem with a missing space:

samba-3.0.20a/docs/manpages/smbmount.8

"If this option is not given then the environment variable\fBPASSWD\fR is used\&."

Between "variable\fBPASSWD\fR" the space is missing. The docbook source is:

                <listitem><para>specifies the SMB password. If this
                option is not given then the environment variable
                <envar>PASSWD</envar> is used. If it can find

So there is a problem in the build tools. A simple workaround maybe to change
this to

               <listitem><para>specifies the SMB password. If this
               option is not given then the environment variable <envar>
               PASSWD</envar> is used. If it can find

(move the <envar> to the upper line) like the paragraph above this one

                this is not given, then the environment variable <envar>
                USER</envar> is used. This option can also take the

which doesn't have this problem.
