directory exported by NFS.
To get Samba network access, specify the image file name as follows:
smb://hostname/share name/remote filename
Hostname may be specified with username and password as:

username:password@hostname
For example:

trueimagemnt -m /mnt/md1 -f smb://dhcp6-

mounts /mike/md1.tib archive, located on dhcp6-223.acronis.com node in /sdb3 directory

-p|--password password

Specifies the password to explore password protected images.

-t|--fstype filesystem type

Specifies explicit filesytem type to be passed to the standard "mount" command. This

option is useful if the standard "mount" command can't guess filesystem type by some

reason.

-i|--index partition index

Index of the partition.

-w|--read-write

Opens the image in read-write mode. After umount all changed data will be saved into

the archive with a new index.

-d|--description archive description

If an image is mounted in read-write mode, the program assumes that the image will

be modified, and creates an incremental archive file to capture the changes. The option

enables you to list the forthcoming changes in the comment to this file.

-k|--keepdev

Keeps kernel space block device and user space daemon if an error occurs while

mounting. This option may be used to get raw access to imaged partition data.
