Description Crist J. Clark 2000-03-14 03:30:01 UTC 
	mountd(8) can produce error messages like,

  mountd[389]: -mask requires -net

However, '-net' is not a legal mountd(8) option either. Only
'-network' and '-n' are. If you use '-net' you get,

  mountd[390]: bad opt net

Fix: Either let mountd(8) take a '-net' option,

Or produce the correct error messages,
How-To-Repeat: 
	Try an export line,

 /usr/obj -net 192.168.128.0 -mask 255.255.255.0

And you get the error above.

I got really mad at mountd the other day and have some patches 
that make error message more verbose. I'll add these to my patch set.
