VACFS(4) VACFS(4)
NAME
vacfs - mount venti archive
SYNOPSIS
vacfs [ -Ddp ] [ -a addr ] [vac:score]
DESCRIPTION
Vacfs makes the contents of a venti archive available over
styx. Standard input is used for reading and writing styx
messages. If score is not specified, vacfs serves multiple
venti archives. In this case the root directory lists no
files, but walking to a directory score opens the venti
archive with that score. Note that the vacfs does not sup-
port writing.
-D Print styx trace messages.
-d Print debug messages.
-p Disable permission checking.
-a address
Dial address instead of the default venti server.

BUGS

When the venti connection is broken, directories appear
empty.
