+The data for the file system is stored on
+.IR venti (8)
+with a root fingerprint specified in
+.IR vacfile .
+.I Vacfs
+is currently rather limited: access is read-only,
+clients are not authenticated, and groups are assumed to
+contain a single member with the same name.
+These restrictions should eventually be removed.
+.PP

+.TP
+.B -d
+Print debugging information to standard error.
+.TP
+.BI -h " host
+The network address of the Venti server.
+The default is taken from the environment variable
+.BR venti .
+If this variable does not exist, then the default is the
+metaname 
+.BR $venti ,
+which can be configured via
+.IR ndb (6).
+.TP
+.B -i
+Use file descriptors 0 and 1 as the 9P communication channel rather than create a pipe.
