jazip.conf

JAZIP.CONF(5)							File Formats Manual						     JAZIP.CONF(5)

NAME

       jazip.conf - jazip(1) configuration file.

DESCRIPTION

       The /etc/jazip.conf file lists the Jaz and Zip devices that users are allowed to mount and unmount using jazip, along with the mount points
       used by jazip for each device.

       If you have more than one drive on your system, you can create a separate entry in the configuration file for each one,	and  then  specify
       the  raw  device  name  of  the drive you want to use on the command line when you invoke jazip.  If no device name is given on the command
       line, jazip will use the settings in the first entry of /etc/jazip.conf by default.

FILE FORMAT

       The format of the jazip.conf file should be mostly self-explanatory.  Each line looks like:

       /dev/sda /zip auto auto 0 0

       The first entry is the raw SCSI device name of your drive (e.g.	/dev/sda without a partition number ).	The  second  entry  is	the  mount
       point you wish to use (e.g.  /zip ).  The additional entries:

       auto auto 0 0

       are  required  but  are not user-changeable.  They are required because jazip uses standard system call to do mounting and they expect this
       format.

       The type of filesystem (e.g.  vfat or ext2 ) will be automatically detected by jazip and is not listed in /etc/jazip.conf.

CONFIGURATION SCRIPT

       See the jazipconfig(8) man page for specifics on the jazipconfig command that you can use to create /etc/jazip.
