Hi.

First of all sorry if I through my ignorance am attempting something
completely stupid.

I have been trying to copy the APE sources using plan9port. The
purpose of this is that I am trying to make an APE augmentation
PKGBUILD to the kencc package [1] (and ultimately, I will try to
figure out how to make a kencc+APE cross compiler for Plan9 on a Linux
host) for Arch linux.

I have also asked at the Arch forums [2] but no answers yet, so I
guess it is nothing anyone has attempted...

I can mount the sources at bell labs using the following procedure

mkdir sources
9 mount 'tcp!sources.cs.bell-labs.com' sources

I can then cd and explore the bell labs sources via plan9port, so that
works just fine.

When I then try something like

cp -ar sources/plan9/sys/src/ape ape

I get an error stating:
unexpected open flags 0500000cp: can not open
”sources/plan9/sys/src/ape/9src/mkfile” for reading: Access denied

What I now wonder is: Is this the expected behaviour? Is anonymous
copying from the Bell labs sources blocked? Or is the permission
issues local and something I can fix by a mount option? I could not
find anything using 9 man mount...
