smbmount question

Hi,

I'm running Linux 2.2.2 w/ Samba 2.0.2, using the smbmount that comes with 
Samba 2.0.2.  I noticed that when I mount shares, smbmount sticks around,
almost like a daemon:

[root at jason /root]# smbmount //XXXX.gatech.edu/XXXX$ "XXXXXX" -U jkau
-c "mount /mnt/cnd" < /dev/null > /tmp/smbmount.out
[root at jason /root]# ps ax | grep smbmount
10678  ?  S    0:00 /usr/bin/smbmount //XXXX.gatech.edu/XXXX$ XXXXXX
[root at jason /root]#

This isn't how smbmount used to behave.  Is it supposed to stick around
like this?  This occurs regardless of the type of share I'm mounting
(occurs with both WinNT shares and Samba shares).

Thanks for your help.
