66 will not detach from the controlling terminal and will print
67 debugging messages to stderr.
69 Do not require privileged ports for mount or NFS RPC calls.
70 This option is equivalent to specifying
71 .Dq -noresvport -noresvmnt
77 This flag used to indicate that clients were required to make requests
78 from reserved ports, but it is now no longer functional. It
79 is only provided for backwards compatibility. Requests
80 are checked for reserved ports on a per-export basis, see
87 .Xr ipsec_set_policy 3 .
88 Multiple IPsec policy strings may be specified by using a semicolon as
89 a separator. If conflicting policy strings are found in a single line,
90 the last string will take effect. If an invalid IPsec policy string is used
92 logs an error message and terminates itself.

101 NFS through a firewall.
105 argument specifies an alternative location

112 it loads the export host addresses and options into the kernel
116 After changing the exports file,
117 a hangup signal should be sent to the
119 daemon to get it to reload the export information.
120 After sending the SIGHUP
121 (kill \-s HUP `cat /var/run/mountd.pid`),
122 check the syslog output to see if
124 logged any parsing errors in the exports file.
126 After receiving SIGTERM,
128 sends a broadcast request to remove the mount list from all the clients.
129 This can take a long time, since the broadcast request waits for each
