How do I mount a remote NFS filesystem from within a program? I know I have
to talk to the remote rpc.mountd first, then setup a nfs_args structure which
should be passed to some system call. Peeking through libc.a, I found a
nfs_mount() routine, but I could not find a single reference to this routine
in the docs. What arguments does it take?
I am not interested in solutions doing something like system("mount..."), I
need to duplicate the functionality of the mount command in my own program.
BTW, this is AIX PS/2 1.2
