2 .SH NAME
3 mount, unmount \- change name space
4 .SH SYNOPSIS
5 .B mount
6 .I servename
7 .I mtpt
8 .PP
9 .B unmount
10 .I mtpt
11 .SH DESCRIPTION
12 .I Mount
13 mounts a 9P server's files into the file system.
14 .I Servename
15 is typically
16 either the name of a Unix domain socket
17 (see
18 .MR namespace (1) )
19 or the name or IP address of a machine
20 serving 9P over TCP port 564.
21 .PP
22 .I Unmount
23 undoes the effects of the
24 .I mount
25 command.
26 .PP
27 9P services can be mounted on Unix systems in multiple ways.
28 On Linux,
29 .I mount
30 uses the native 9P kernel module when present.
31 Otherwise it tries to use
32 .MR 9pfuse (4)
33 with the FUSE file system module.
34 Using the 9P kernel module requires root access.
35 FUSE can often be used by regular users.
36 On FreeBSD,
37 .I mount
38 tries to use FUSE.
39 .PP
40 Since Unix already has a
41 .I mount
42 command, the version described in this manual page
43 should be invoked as
44 .B 9
45 .BR mount .
