Description John Baldwin freebsd_committer

Back in the 5.x days when the ti-rpc RPC code was brought in, mountd was updated to support IPv6.  This includes putting IPv6 addresses in /etc/exports for the -network flag.  Also, any network address can now be followed by an optional /prefix instead of using -netmask.  Thus, instead of:

/foo -network 192.168.0.0 -netmask 255.255.255.0

you can now do:

/foo -network 192.168.0.0/24

You can also do this now for IPv6:

/foo -network 1:2:3:4::/64

The exports(5) manpage was never updated to document this however and I only found out when I went to look at the code.  I'm actually using IPv6 and /prefix on a box running 6.3, but have verified that HEAD's exports(5) is still missing the data.

Hello John,

  does the patch at http://danger.rulez.sk/exports.5.diff work for
  you? It's based on the exports(5) manual page from NetBSD.

  Ruslan, can you please check whethe my changes are correct from the
  view of mdoc?

  Thank you guys.

Looks ok to me.  I would maybe do the markup fixes as a separate commit 
though.

I have commited the patch into the -HEAD branch.  I didn't opt to 
separate markup fixes as another commit as I don't really see a 
reason to do so for man pages.
