15 +iopen_nopriv                   This option makes the iopen directory be
16 +                               world-readable.  This may be safer since it
17 +                               allows daemons to run as an unprivileged user,
18 +                               however it significantly changes the security
19 +                               model of a Unix filesystem, since previously
20 +                               all files under a mode 700 directory were not
21 +                               generally avilable even if the
