Mount does not use the RFC definition of a hostname or IP address to determin if something is a hostname or not followed by a ':'. From the example below you can see that mount(8) believed "/FBSD/snapshot.20020418_09" was a hostname. >How-To-Repeat: # mount -u -o snapshot /FBSD/snapshot.20020418_09:35 /FBSD nfs: -o snapshot: option not supported >Fix: fix command line parsing done by mount(8) so an explicit "-t ffs" does not have to be used. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
