.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Nm
.Op Fl sfnvh
.Op Fl N Ar namespace
.Op Fl o Ar options
.Ar fileserver
.Ar mountpoint
.
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
helper is used by
.Xr mount 8
to wrap a 9p filesystem through a dp9ik authenticated
tls tunnel provided by
.Xr tlsclient 1 .
This is accomplished by interpreting the arguments provided,
setting up the connection and then passing the file descriptiors
to the kernel 9p mount.
.Ar Fileserver
is connected to over TCP, doing DNS resolution as required.
As there is no standard port for this type of service a
.Fl o Ar port
option is required.
.
.Sh OPTIONS
The
.Fl s ,
.Fl f ,
.Fl n ,
.Fl v ,
and
.Fl N
flags are passed to
.Xr mount 8
without any interpretation by
.Nm .
Most
.Ar options
are passed through untouched, with
.Nm
ingesting the
.Ar port
and
.Ar auth
.Ar options
for itself. The former specifying the
port to connect to the
.Ar fileserver
on and the later specifying the hostname of the mutal authentication
server that is to be used in the dp9ik handshake.
