Can't export /usr/ports

[Jeremie Le Hen]

Hi,

my current exports(5) file looks something like this :
I copied the last line and replaced the path with /usr/ports, when I try to
reload mountd(8), I get an error in /var/log/messages :


Look at this small session.  The initial exports(5) file works fine.  The
second one generate an error.

%%%
    propane:tataz# cat /etc/exports 
    /usr/home/ncvs          -ro -network 172.16.0.0 -mask 255.255.0.0
    /usr/home/tataz         -maproot=tataz -network 172.16.80.0 -mask 255.255.255.0
    propane:tataz# sed -i '' '${ p; s%home/tataz%ports%; s/tataz/root/; }' /etc/exports 
    propane:tataz# cat /etc/exports 
    /usr/home/ncvs          -ro -network 172.16.0.0 -mask 255.255.0.0
    /usr/home/tataz         -maproot=tataz -network 172.16.80.0 -mask 255.255.255.0
    /usr/ports              -maproot=root -network 172.16.80.0 -mask 255.255.255.0
    propane:tataz# /etc/rc.d/mountd reload
    Reloading mountd config files.
    propane:tataz# tail -n 2 /var/log/messages

    May 17 15:33:03 propane mountd[367]: bad exports list line /usr/ports          -maproot
%%%

I checked mountd(8) sources, and this error messages appears when the
mount(2) syscall fails (I assume this is the way mountd(8) informs the
kernel about a directory to be exported).

I'm sure this is a foolish error from me, but I can't figure one.
Thanks.
