Additional development by Greg Watson +<gwatson@lanl.gov> and most recently Eric Van Hensbergen +<ericvh@gmail.com> and Latchesar Ionkov <lucho@ionkov.net>. + +USAGE +===== + +For remote file server: + + mount -t 9P 10.10.1.2 /mnt/9 + +For Plan 9 From User Space applications (http://swtch.com/plan9) + + mount -t 9P `namespace`/acme /mnt/9 -o proto=unix,name=$USER + +OPTIONS +======= + + proto=name select an alternative transport. Valid options are + currently: + unix - specifying a named pipe mount point + tcp - specifying a normal TCP/IP connection + fd - used passed file descriptors for connection + (see rfdno and wfdno) + + name=name user name to attempt mount as on the remote server. The + server may override or ignore this value. Certain user + names may require authentication. + + aname=name aname specifies the file tree to access when the server is + offering several exported file systems. + + debug=n specifies debug level.
