NAME

setmnt − establish mount table mnttab

SYNOPSIS

/etc/setmnt

DESCRIPTION

Setmnt creates the /etc/mnttab table (see mnttab(4)), which is needed for both the mount(1M) and umount commands.  Setmnt reads standard input and creates a mnttab entry for each line.  Input lines have the format:

filesys node

where filesys is the name of the file system’s special file (e.g., “dsk/?s?”) and node is the root name of that file system.  Thus filesys and node become the first two strings in the mnttab(4) entry.

FILES

/etc/mnttab

SEE ALSO

devnm(1M), mount(1M), mnttab(4). 

BUGS

Filesys and node are truncated to MNTLEN bytes. 
Setmnt silently enforces an upper limit on the maximum number of mnttab entries. 
It is unwise to use setmnt to create false entries for mount(1M) and umount.
