https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D207625 Chris Davidson <Christopher.davidson@gmail.com> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |Christopher.davidson@gmail. | |com --- Comment #3 from Chris Davidson <Christopher.davidson@gmail.com> --- The -n option is also not documented in the latest -CURRENT (FreeBSD current.home 15.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 15.0-CURRENT #6 main-n268726-32c7350beb82: Thu Mar 7 21:25:02 EST 2024=20=20=20=20 chrisdavidson@current.home:/usr/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/sys/GENERIC amd64) I did take a look at the source code dig a little deeper and checked out the soruce code (contrib/smbfs/mount_smbfs/mount_smbfs.c). This option does exi= st in the source code but it has comments around it, that it is never reached. Evidence: The case option for 'n' exists on line 180 but on line 179 it has= a comment: /*NOTREACHED*/. Looking through other distribution manual pages they are NOT mentioning this option at all, example:=20 https://www.illumos.org/man/8/mount_smbfs I can not find a reference to it online but the mac os ventura manual pages also do NOT reference this option. My conclusion is two options: 1. Remove the reference in the manual page 2. Update the source code for mount_smbfs.c to make the case reachable. Option 2 "looks" to be resolved by adding a break line to the case above and then testing it out a little. Hope this information is helpful for resolution of this manual page discrepancy. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
