This command is used to connect to newer versions NFS shares, which offer improved functionality, but otherwise maintains similarly to the previous NFS versions.

		+	Unless otherwise stated above (such as the read-only aspect of certain listed file systems) the limitations of the file system implementation on FreeBSD is typically based on the design of a given file system. For example the MS-DOS file system variation called FAT16 has a physical [[partition]] (or [[slice]] in FreeBSD terminology) size limitation of 2GB. Another example could be network based shares using NFS or CIFS where the server hosting the share could place specific read/write attributes and thereby control the access available to the client system mounting that share.

	The '''mount_smbfs''' command mounts file file systems located on network shares using the [[SAMBA\|Samba]] protocol. This protocol is available with Microsoft Windows Server operating systems (where it is referred to by CIFS, the Common Internet File System) as well as other servers capable of hosting the CIFS protocol. The mount_samba command is used on one system to access the file system of another hosting the CIFS share.
