NAME

	mount, unmount – change name space

SYNOPSIS

	mount servename mtpt unmount mtpt

DESCRIPTION

Mount mounts a 9P server’s files into the file system. Servename is typically either the name of a Unix domain socket (see namespace(1)) or the name or IP address of a machine serving 9P over TCP port 564. Unmount undoes the effects of the mount command. 9P services can be mounted on Unix systems in multiple ways. On Linux, mount uses the native 9P kernel module when present. Otherwise it tries to use 9pfuse(4) with the FUSE file system module. Using the 9P kernel module requires root access. FUSE can often be used by regular users. On FreeBSD, mount tries to use FUSE. Since Unix already has a mount command, the version described in this manual page should be invoked as 9 mount.

EXAMPLES

	Mount acme(4) onto /mnt/acme : 9 mount `namespace`/acme /mnt/acme View your plumbing rules: 9 mount `namespace`/plumb /mnt/plumb cat /mnt/plumb/rules
