u@PROGRAM_NAME@(8)	    System Manager's Manual	    u@PROGRAM_NAME@(8)

NAME
       u@PROGRAM_NAME@ - Umount-helper to unmount a @PACKAGE@ file system

SYNOPSIS
       u@PROGRAM_NAME@ [-h | --help] [-V | --version]
       umount dir

SYNOPSIS (root only)
       u@PROGRAM_NAME@ dir

DESCRIPTION
       u@PROGRAM_NAME@	is  a  umount  helper  program.	 It  is	 called	by the
       umount(8) command. Its purpose is to prevent the	 umount	 command  from
       returning  unless  @PROGRAM_NAME@ has synchronized all its cached files
       with the	webdav server.

       dir is the mountpoint where the WebDAV resource is mounted on.  It  may
       be an absolute or relative path.

       While for local file systems umount(8) will only	return when all	cached
       data  have  been	 written to disk, this is not automatically true for a
       mounted @PACKAGE@ file system. With this	umount	helper	the  user  can
       rely  on	 the  familiar behaviour of umount(8). To inform the operating
       system that the file system uses	a network connection, you  should  al-
       ways use	the _netdev option, when mounting as @PACKAGE@ file system.

       Depending  on the amount	of data	and the	quality	of the connection, un-
       mounting	a @PACKAGE@ file system	may  take  some	 seconds  up  to  some
       hours.

       If   the	 @PROGRAM_NAME@	 daemon	 encountered  serious  errors,	u@PRO-
       GRAM_NAME@ may return an	error instead of unmounting the	 file  system.
       In  this	 case try umount -i. The -i option will	prevent	umount(8) from
       calling u@PROGRAM_NAME@.

OPTIONS
       -V --version
	      Output version.

       -h --help
	      Print a help message.

       -f -l -n	-r -v -t
	      This options are ignored.	They are only recognized for  compati-
	      bility with umount(8).

FILES
       @SYS_RUN@
	      PID-files	 of  running  u@PROGRAM_NAME@  processes are looked up
	      here.

BUGS
       No known	bugs.
