OK... I did some googling... Source: http://www.die.net/doc/linux/man/man8/mount.8.html """ Instead of a textual option string, parsed by the kernel, the nfs file system expects a binary argument of type struct nfs_mount_data. The program mount itself parses the following options of the form `tag=value', and puts them in the structure mentioned: rsize=n, wsize=n, timeo=n, retrans=n, acregmin=n, acregmax=n, acdirmin=n, acdirmax=n, actimeo=n, retry=n, port=n, mountport=n, mounthost=name, mountprog=n, mountvers=n, nfsprog=n, nfsvers=n, namlen=n. The option addr=n is accepted but ignored. Also the following Boolean options, possibly preceded by no are recognized: bg, fg, soft, hard, intr, posix, cto, ac, tcp, udp, lock. For details, see nfs(5). """ I would still recommend looking into the mount source code. If I remember correctly, there is more to it than just creating a struct and populating it. I seem to recall that I also had to do something to register the remote export with the local machine. I vaguely remember fighting to have to get something to show up in /proc before I could successfully mount a filesystem. Josh -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
