       NAME
             setmnt - establish mount table

       SYNOPSIS
             /sbin/setmnt

       DESCRIPTION
             setmnt creates the /etc/mnttab table which is needed for both
             the mount 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'' (such as /dev/dsk/c?b?t?d?s?)  and node is the root
             name of that file system.  Thus filesys and node become the
             first two strings in the mount table entry.

       FILES
             /etc/mnttab

       REFERENCES
             mount(1M)

       NOTICES
             Problems may occur if filesys or node are longer than 32
             characters.

             setmnt silently enforces an upper limit on the maximum number
             of mnttab entries.
