fstab

[cstdenis]

Why does my fstab look like this? Way too much escapes

cat "/usr/local/appjail/jails/manager/conf/fstab"

Hi @cstdenis

These escape characters are further processed by mount(8), the intention being to allow the use of other "special" characters, such as (but not limited to) spaces.

[cstdenis]

May be better to escape only special characters instead of everything to make it more directly readable.

That file is not intended to be edited by the end user, you must use appjail-fstab(1). If you want to use a created fstab(5) file, you can set mount.fstab to a specific file in your template.

See also appjail-start(1).
