Umount CIFS

hi guys

I have to umount a CIFS from a Windows machine...but it's been imposible

there is one special task

Code:
/sbin/umount.cifs /mondobackup

that task cannot be kill...so I cannot umount the unit

any idea how to kill this and umount this CIFS share?

by the way I've tried

umount -l
umount -f

same thing now I have these other commands holding the mount

Code:
ps aux | grep [m]ondo
root      5254  0.0  0.0   1420   292 ?        D    12:15   0:00 /sbin/umount.cifs /mondobackup
root      7593  0.0  0.0   1564   476 ?        D    13:18   0:00 fuser -cu /mondobackup
root      7724  0.0  0.0   1564   472 ?        D    13:18   0:00 fuser -ck /mondobackup
root      7882  0.0  0.0   1424   300 ?        D    13:20   0:00 /sbin/umount.cifs /mondobackup -f
root      8029  0.0  0.0   1424   300 pts/20   D    13:21   0:00 /sbin/umount.cifs /mondobackup -l

thanks a lot

UMOUNT.NFS(8)						      System Manager's Manual						     UMOUNT.NFS(8)

NAME
umount.nfs, umount.nfs4 - unmount a Network File System SYNOPSIS
umount.nfs dir [-fvnrlh ] DESCRIPTION
umount.nfs and umount.nfs4 are a part of nfs(5) utilities package, which provides NFS client functionality. umount.nfs4 and umount.nfs are meant to be used by the umount(8) command for unmounting NFS shares. This subcommand, however, can also be used as a standalone command with limited functionality. dir is the directory on which the file system is mounted. OPTIONS
-f Force unmount the file system in case of unreachable NFS system. -v Be verbose. -n Do not update /etc/mtab. By default, an entry is created in /etc/mtab for every mounted file system. Use this option to skip delet- ing an entry. -r In case unmounting fails, try to mount read-only. -l Lazy unmount. Detach the file system from the file system hierarchy now, and cleanup all references to the file system as soon as it is not busy anymore. -h Print help message. NOTE
For further information please refer nfs(5) and umount(8) manual pages. FILES
