27 0657d222 2005-01-16 devnull .I Vacfs
28 0657d222 2005-01-16 devnull interprets the file system created by
29 d32deab1 2020-08-16 rsc .MR vac (1)
30 0657d222 2005-01-16 devnull so that it can be mounted into a Plan 9 file hierarchy.
31 865d0e5e 2005-01-16 devnull The data for the file system is stored on a Venti server
32 0657d222 2005-01-16 devnull with a root fingerprint specified in
33 0657d222 2005-01-16 devnull .IR vacfile .
34 0657d222 2005-01-16 devnull .I Vacfs
35 0657d222 2005-01-16 devnull is currently rather limited: access is read-only,
36 0657d222 2005-01-16 devnull clients are not authenticated, and groups are assumed to
37 0657d222 2005-01-16 devnull contain a single member with the same name.
38 0657d222 2005-01-16 devnull These restrictions should eventually be removed.
