GS-MOUNT(1)		    General Commands Manual		   GS-MOUNT(1)

NAME
       gs-mount	-- Secure filesystem client through via	Global Socket.

SYNOPSIS
       gs-mount	[-lTR] [-s secret] [-k keyfile]	[mountpoint]

DESCRIPTION
       The  gs-mount  utility  is  a wrapper script for	gs-netcat. It allows a
       user to mount and access	a filesystem from another user via the	Global
       Socket  Relay  Network  (GSRN). This is useful in a scenario where both
       users are behind	NAT/Firewall and unable	to connect to each  other  di-
       rectly.

OPTIONS
       -s secret
	       A  password chosen by the user. Both users need to use the same
	       password	to connect.

       -k FILE
	       A file containing the password.

       -l      Server mode. The	default	mode is	client.

       -R      Places server (-l) into a  read-only  mode.  Attempts  to  open
	       files  for writing, as well as other operations that change the
	       state of	the filesystem,	will be	denied.

       -T      Use TOR.	The gs-mount tool will connect via TOR	to  the	 GSRN.
	       This  requires TOR to be	installed and running. The IP and PORT
	       of the TOR server can be	set using environment variables.

       See gs-netcat(1)	for more options.

EXAMPLES
       Example 1 - Alice sharing her current directory:
	     $ gs-mount	-s MySecret -l

       Bob mounting Alice's directroy to ~/gs-alice:
	     $ gs-mount	-s MySecret ~/gs-alice

ENVIRONMENT
       See gs-netcat(1)	for a list of supported	environment variables.

SEE ALSO
       gsocket(1), gs-netcat(1), gs-sftp(1), blitz(1), sshfs(1)

BUGS
       Efforts have been made to have gs-mount "do the right thing" in all its
       various modes. If you believe that it is	doing the  wrong  thing	 under
       whatever	 circumstances,	 please	notify me (skyper@thc.org) and tell me
       how you think it	should behave.
