     SETMNT(C)                XENIX System V                 SETMNT(C)



     Name
          setmnt - Establishes /etc/mnttab table.

     Syntax
          /etc/setmnt

     Description
          setmnt creates the /etc/mnttab table (see mnttab(F)), which
          is needed for both the mount(C) and umount(C) commands.
          setmnt reads the 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., ``hd0'') and node is the root name of that file
          system.  Thus filesys and node become the first two strings
          in the mnttab(F) entry.

     Files
          /etc/mnttab

     See Also
          mnttab(F)

     Notes
          If filesys or node are longer than 128 characters, errors
          can occur.

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

          setmnt is normally invoked by /etc/rc when the system boots
          up.
