You forgot to put 'rw', 'ro', or 'rq' as the first element of the options column (where you had the undefined word 'defaults').
If you don't include one of these options as indicated in the man page and all of its examples, the fstab line will be ignored entirely in OpenBSD. This is slightly different behavior than Linux, where invalid lines are not discarded, but instead passed all the way to the mount command, to show a different kind of error: E.g., if I gave linux this: 10.10.10.10:/mnt /mnt nfs nodev,nosuid,softdep 0 0 I'd get this: mount.nfs: an incorrect mount option was specified The Linux manpage has almost the same warning about what should be in this field. The only difference is Linux mount has a 'defaults' alias that means 'rw, suid, dev, exec, auto, nouser, and async', and doesn't really make sense mixed with any other options on Linux either.
