Hi Angelo,

You need to configure some DNS servers in e.g. /lib/ndb/local.

I have some notes on setting up a standalone Plan 9 CPU and file server at the following URL:

http://wildflower.diablonet.net/~scaron/p9setup.html

It sounds like you're just trying to set up a terminal so this won't be quite the same, but, really, a standalone terminal is of limited use; setting up a proper server is much more interesting. You should consider it.

Best,

-Sean

Hello,
after my last attempt on plan9 several months ago I again decided to
give plan9 a chance and installed it,
but I have no idea how to set up my network. I think the files to edit
are in /lib/ndb but I have no clue how to do that. I read every doc on
the plan9 site that seemed promising but it didn't help me set up my
network connection.
What I want is simple (under unix): I want the system to be part in my
domain and use another computer in my network as DNS server. I already
configured /cfg/gnot/termrc to set my ip via ip/ipconfig and I can
ping other computers in my network but dns doesn't work (the doc says
I just need to start ndb/dns -r, but firstly it's already started and
secondly it doesn't work). Could anyone please explain to me how to
set up my network?

Thanks,
Angelo Papenhoff
