Each client supported by this server must have an entry in the .Nm file containing the pathnames for its .Dq root and (optionally) .Dq swap areas. .Pp Each line in the file (other than comment lines that begin with a .Ql # ) specifies the client name followed by the pathnames that the client may request by their logical names. The components of the line are delimited with blank or tab, and may be continued onto multiple lines with a backslash. .Pp For example: .Bd -literal -offset indent dummy root=host:/export/dummy/root \\ swap=host:/export/dummy/swap \\ dump=host:/export/dummy/swap .Ed .Pp When the client named .Dq dummy requests the pathname for its logical .Dq root it will be given the pathname .Dq Pa host:/export/dummy/root as the response to its .Tn RPC request. The .Dq host: component must be supplied. .Sh FILES .Bl -tag -width /etc/bootparams -compact .It Pa /etc/bootparams default configuration file .El .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr bootparamd 8 , .Xr diskless 8
