Seems to me that something akin to a URL syntax might be better:
mount tcpip:/205.187.71.66/fs/root /dist
mount file://fs/root /dist
The default would then be something like
mount /205.187.71.66/fs/root /dist
or perhaps like Windows et al:
mount //<server>/fs/root /dist
where a leading double slash indicates TCPIP, a single slash
a local file, and a name followed by a colon a named protocol.
