i don't see an explination for this below. what does this
accomplish? if you are trying to load more keys into your
factotum, this can be more cleanly be done by putting them
in secstore(1). secstored(8) will serve them.
Well. I mentioned this reason in the PS note. I do this only to be able to enter my login and password somehow. If I leave out the mount/unmount commands then the 'local mount' will ask for these instead, but then you can't just enter those --- the input/output goes to somewhere (? /dev/kprint) and you get to a situation that some of what you type goes somewhere, some goes elsewhere... Is it better now? I have no other reason than this one.
Further, I just didn't want to really serve those like you propose. I do not have a real reason for this (though I could easily think of some). I am now simply interested in the kind of authentication through giving a login and a password, if it can be made secure (I also asked about this) like eg. an ordinary ssh connection.

the plumber doesn't require that the command it runs finish
before returning. (think of plumbing a file. you don't want
to hang until the editor exits.)
Ok, understand. Thus I only either have to find a way to be sure the first command has ended, or just rely it does during that 1s and live with that.

why are you doing this?
