umount.davfs(8)			     1.7.1		       umount.davfs(8)

NAME
       umount.davfs - Umount-helper to unmount a davfs2	file system

SYNOPSIS
       umount.davfs [-h	| --help] [-V |	--version]
       umount dir

SYNOPSIS (root only)
       umount.davfs dir

DESCRIPTION
       umount.davfs  is	a umount helper	program. It is called by the umount(8)
       command.	Its purpose is to prevent the umount  command  from  returning
       unless  mount.davfs has synchronized all	its cached files with the web-
       dav 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 davfs2 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  always  use
       the _netdev option, when	mounting as davfs2 file	system.

       Depending  on the amount	of data	and the	quality	of the connection, un-
       mounting	a davfs2 file system may take some seconds up to some hours.

       If the mount.davfs daemon encountered serious errors, umount.davfs  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
       umount.davfs.

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
       /var/run/mount.davfs
	      PID-files	of running umount.davfs	processes are looked up	here.

BUGS
       No known	bugs.
