He uses two knots one is the Evenk slippery figure of eight and the other is Tarp taut hitch .http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ebbki6OdMhk&feature=player_detailpage

I made a phone app called Camping Knots with common knots if you fancy loading it it's freely available for Android, Symbian and WebOS: https://build.phonegap.com/apps/37310/builds

The video I watched of Ray mears hanging a Tarp, He used a Siberian Hitch (Evenk knot) for the first end and a tautline hitch on the other, I perfer a truckers type knot which allows teriffic tension.
