NAME

cifs mkdir - create a directory for a user

SYNOPSIS

cifs mkdir share user path

DESCRIPTION

This can be used to create a user's home directory. This command was added since an administrator using a DOS or Windows machine cannot change the UNIX-style permissions of a file or directory to give the user proper access to the directory and cannot make the user the owner of the directory. It will create a directory with the pathname path, relative to the root directory of the share share. The directory created will have user as its owner and user's primary group as its group owner.
