step 3. you really don't want rwm on. use dmaon script instead of doing it by hand. also ip/ipconfig with no args is recommended if you already have a dhcp server. also, this should be in your cpurc.local. step 5. these devices you suggest binding are already bound * #S /lib/namespace it's probablly not a good idea to suggest that everyone bind these: * #m, #i since not everyone is interested in starting rio on their cpu server. likewise aux/vga, aux/mouse and rio don't belong in everyone's /cfg/$s/cpustart. (it's really difficult to use the serial console remotely if you've started rio!) step 8. don't invalidate the host keys after you've set them! do that first. also set the hostowner's keys here. step 11. refreshing cs is not required for ndb/query to work. ndb/query doesn't care what cs thinks. step 14. setting host key can be omitted. you should have done that in step 8. step 17. it's a good idea to always leave a 9fat menu around on your auth server. if you screw a kernel up, you'll really be proud of your self for it! - erik
