 NAME     
 |  |  |  | vacfs – a Venti-based file system 
 | 
 SYNOPSIS     
 |  |  |  | vacfs [ −dip ] [ −h host ] [ −m mtpt ] [ −s srvname ] [ −M mem
    ] vacfile 
 | 
 DESCRIPTION     
 |  |  |  | Vacfs interprets the file system created by vac(1) so that it
    can be mounted into a Plan 9 file hierarchy. The data for the
    file system is stored on a Venti server with a root fingerprint
    specified in vacfile. Vacfs is currently rather limited: access
    is read-only, clients are not authenticated, and groups are assumed
    to contain a single member with the same
    name. These restrictions should eventually be removed. 
    
    
    Options to vacfs are: −d    Print debugging information to standard error.
 −h host
 
 −i    Use file descriptors 0 and 1 as the 9P communication channel
    rather than create a pipe.|  |  |  | The network address of the Venti server. The default is taken
        from the environment variable venti. If this variable does not
        exist, then the default is the metaname $venti. 
 | 
 −m mtpt
 
 −p    Disables permission checking.|  |  |  | The location to mount the file system. The default is not to mount. 
 | 
 −s    The name of the 9P service to post. The default is vacfs.name,
    where name is vacfile without any directory name or .vac extension.
 −M mem
 
 |  |  |  | The amount of memory, in bytes, allocated to the block cache.
        The default is 16M.
