Creates entries in the /etc/vfs file.
crvfs VFSEntry
The crvfs command adds /etc/vfs file entries by specifying fields within the VFSEntry parameter. The VFSEntry parameter is composed of the following entries: VFSName:VFSNumber:MountHelper:FileSystemHelper.
Any of the entries in the VFSEntry parameter can be the NULL value, with the exception of the VFSName entry. If all the arguments are satisfactory, and the VFSName entry given on the command line does not already exist, a new entry is created in the /etc/vfs file.
To create a new vfs entry called newvfs , enter:
crvfs "newvfs:4:none:/etc/helpers/newvfshelper"
This creates the newvfs entry.
