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 support 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.
