The mount_ptyfs
command attaches an
instance of the pseudo-terminal device filesystem to the global filesystem
namespace. The conventional mount point is /dev/pts.
The directory specified by mount_point is converted to
an absolute path before use. This command is normally executed by
mount(8) at boot time.
The filesystem contains pseudo-terminal slave device nodes which are allocated dynamically via ptm(4).
The options are as follows:
-g
group|gid-m
mode-o
-o
flag followed by a
comma separated string of options.
mount_ptyfs
specific options are
group
which corresponds to
-g
, and mode
which
corresponds to -m
. See the
mount(8) man page for
possible options and their meanings.
The mount_ptyfs
utility first appeared in
NetBSD 3.0.
