COLLAB(1) COLLAB(1)
NAME
collab: connect - connect to collaborative files and
services
SYNOPSIS
collab/connect [ -C alg ] [ -k keyfile ] [ -v ] [ netaddress
[ localdir ] ]
DESCRIPTION
Connect dials network address netaddr (default:
net!$collab!9999), which should be served by an instance of
collabsrv(8), and mounts the resulting connection on
/n/remote; it then binds /n/remote/collab on localdir
(default: /n/ftree/collab).
The resulting hierarchy under /n/remote is determined by the
site configuration, but usually includes the directory
/n/remote/services, which gives access to the server side of
collaborative activities, as described in collabsrv(8), and
the directory /n/remote/collab, which contains the file
hierarchy that contains all collaborative resources offered
to a client device.
If an instance of wm-ftree(1) is running in the same name
space, then after mounting the connection and adjusting the
name space, connect tells it that the name space has
changed, so any displayed view of it can be updated.
Connect accepts the following options:
-C alg
Specify the algorithm, alg, to be used following
authentication for digesting or encryption. See ssl(3)
for the supported algorithms. The default is none:
ssl(3) is not used after authentication.
-k kfile
Specify the keyfile to be used when authenticating.
The default is /usr/user/keyring/netaddr, if that
exists, and otherwise /usr/user/keyring/default. See
keyring-auth(2) for more details.
-v Causes connect to chat about its actions on standard
output.
