NAME
srv, srvtls, 9fs – start network file service |
SYNOPSIS
srv [ –abcCemnNq ] [ –s seconds ] [net!]system[!service] [ srvname
[ mtpt ] ] srvtls [ –abcCnq ] [ –k keyspec ] [net!]system[!service] [ srvname [ mtpt ] ]
9fs [net!]system [mountpoint] |
DESCRIPTION
Srv dials the given machine and initializes the connection to
serve the 9P protocol. By default, it connects to the 9fs (9P)
service, which for TCP is port 564. It then creates in /srv a
file named srvname. Users can then mount (see bind(1)) the service,
typically on a name in /n, to access the files provided by the
remote machine. If srvname is omitted, the first argument to srv
is used. Option m directs srv to mount the service on /n/system
or onto mtpt if it is given. Option q suppresses complaints if
the /srv file already exists. The a, b, c, C, and n, N options
are used to control the mount flags as in mount (see bind(1)).
The e option causes srv to treat system as a shell command to
be executed rather than an address to be dialed. The s option
causes srv to sleep for the specified number of seconds after
establishing the connection before posting and mounting it. The specified service must serve 9P. Usually service can be omitted; when calling some non–Plan–9 systems, a service such as u9fs must be mentioned explicitly. The 9fs command does the srv and the mount necessary to make available the files of system on network net. The files are mounted on mountpoint, if given; otherwise they are mounted on /n/system. If system contains / characters, only the last element of system is used in the /n name. 9fs recognizes some special names, such as dump to make the dump file system available on /n/dump. 9fs is an rc(1) script; examine it to see what local conventions apply.
Srvtls is an rc(1) command that uses tlsclient (see tlssrv(8))
to establish an mutual authenticated and encrypted 9P connection
to the t9fs service which by default listens on tcp port 17020. |

BUGS
Srv does not explicitly report failures of auth_proxy (see auth(2));
mount (see bind(1)) does. |
