[Mysqlfs-general] How should FUSE options be passed?

SourceForge Headquarters 1320 Columbia Street Suite 310 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 422-6466

Hi,

first of all, a great many thanks for this wonderful piece of software.

Now to my question: How should FUSE options be passed
when mysqlfs is executed?

In particular, I'm interested in allowing other users to see/use the 
mounted filesystem. Thus, I'm trying to do it like this:

mysqlfs -ohost=localhost -ouser=mysqlfs -opassword= -odatabase=mysqlfs /var/lib/mysqlfs/fs -oallow_other
* Opening logfile 'mysqlfs.log':  OK
fuse: invalid argument `allow_other'

mysqlfs -ohost=localhost -ouser=mysqlfs -opassword= -odatabase=mysqlfs /var/lib/mysqlfs/fs -onoprivate
* Opening logfile 'mysqlfs.log':  OK
fuse: invalid argument `noprivate'

Hints are welcome.

B/R,
Frederik Dannemare

P.S.: I have created a Debian package of MySQLfs, also including a 
minimalistic manpage and an init script. I'm already officiel Debian
maintainer of a few other packages, and I was thinking of getting
MySQLfs into Debian as well. Feedback is welcome.
