Hello everyone. I'm turning my NetBSD gateway in a venti server with plan9port. Reading the list I have saw a lot of considerations about the configuration. I'll appreciate any information (links to docs?) about setting venti. The man pages and /sys/doc/venti/ are too much technical for me now!. Maybe it's time to dig in file systems/servers and study the venti implementation (Any introductory docs suggestion about this will be appreciated too) to be able to make my own decisions. Or just
http://plan9.bell-labs.com/wiki/plan9/Setting_up_Venti/index.html Index 5% of Arenas, go on with the defaults, and see the sunset on the beach with my hands on my nape? I plan mirror the venti disk with RAIDframe (two 250GB sata disks), and use it to incremental backup my work with vac(1). I was thinking of encrypt the disks with cgd. Also, p9p doesn't support NetBSD-amd64, and current NetBSD-i386 is broken. I had to compile in Netbsd-i386 4.0 in Qemu, and use emulators/netbsd32_compat40: install netbsd32_compat40 Compile p9p in netbsd-4.0 i386 (needs perl) cp i386's libX11.so.6.2 to /emul/netbsd32/lib and soft link to libX11.so.6 libX11.so create /etc/ld.so.conf: /lib /usr/lib /emul/netbsd32/lib create ptys: # cd /dev # sh MAKEDEV opty For now, all is going like a charm. I hope this will be usefull to someone. Nice summer (Or winter). trebol.
