           26 .SH DESCRIPTION
           27 .I Vacfs
           28 interprets the file system created by
           29 .MR vac (1)
           30 so that it can be mounted into a Plan 9 file hierarchy.
           31 The data for the file system is stored on a Venti server
           32 with a root fingerprint specified in
           33 .IR vacfile .
           34 .I Vacfs
           35 is currently rather limited: access is read-only,
           36 clients are not authenticated, and groups are assumed to
           37 contain a single member with the same name.
           38 These restrictions should eventually be removed.
           39 .PP
