Whenever mounting anything with mount_portal, always 61.1Sbgrayson specify absolute paths. By specifying an absolute path for the 71.1Sbgrayson configuration file, it can be re-parsed by sending a HUP to the 81.1Sbgrayson mount process. But since mount_portal calls daemon(), which 91.1Sbgrayson does a chdir("/"), the re-parse will fail unless the 101.1Sbgrayson specified file is absolute, not relative. 111.1Sbgrayson 121.1Sbgrayson 2. The mount point should always be specified as an absolute 131.1Sbgrayson path. Otherwise, umount may not be able to unmount it, as it 141.1Sbgrayson first converts a relative path to an absolute path before 151.1Sbgrayson checking against the mounted file systems (see 161.1Sbgrayson realpath(3)). If you mistakenly mount on portal, instead of 171.1Sbgrayson `pwd`/portal, you can umount with "umount -R portal", which 181.1Sbgrayson may seg fault, but it will umount. 191.1Sbgrayson 201.1SbgraysonDescriptions of files in this directory: 211.1Sbgrayson 221.1Sbgrayson *.conf Configuration files for the corresponding file 231.1Sbgrayson tcp.1 Simple and advanced tcp: daytime and finger 241.1Sbgrayson fing.c Program for tcp.1 251.1Sbgrayson fs.1 Simple fs 261.1Sbgrayson rfilter.1 Simple rfilter usage: bunzip2/bzcat 271.1Sbgrayson rfilter.2 Advanced rfilter usage 281.1Sbgrayson advanced.1 A tutorial 291.2Satatat cvs.1 How to map a cvs server into your local file system 301.2Satatat cvs.pl A perl script that does the work for the cvs configuration 311.1Sbgrayson 321.1SbgraysonIn progress: 331.1Sbgrayson wfilter.1 Simple wfilter usage: bzip2 341.1Sbgrayson 351.1SbgraysonMost (if not all) of these examples were written by Brian Grayson 361.3Ssalo(bgrayson@NetBSD.org).
