A system I have which is a year or so old has a /usr/sbin/smbmount,
but if I use qpkg -f to find out which package owns it I get nothing.

A recently-installed system doesn't have this file and I can't
find any obvious package which would have it (except maybe Samba).

Do I need to install Samba to get smbmount? I would not have thought
so since it is referred to in the man page for mount.

$ ls -l /usr/sbin/smbmount
ls: /usr/sbin/smbmount: No such file or directory

$ which smbmount
/usr/bin/smbmount

$ qpkg -f /usr/bin/smbmount
net-fs/samba *
