Hello everyone, I am new to the list and to Plan 9. I have been trying to set up an OpenBSD venti server for a few days now, but to no success. My intention was to use it as the default venti server for my Plan 9 machine.
I partitioned the disk using fdisk to create one large OpenBSD partition, and then created two paritions with disklabel, one for arenas and one for isect. I followed the wiki page for setting up venti, and have been able to get it working on Plan 9 and other OSes, but not OpenBSD. Using plan9port-20120508 that is provided with OpenBSD seems to have venti working properly on the system, but it does not work across the network, when trying to connect with vac/unvac to the server with a different OS, I invariably get "vtversion: bad format in version string". Using the most up to date plan9port-20140107, I get the same vtversion string when connecting from other OSes, and venti doesn't seem to even work on the server, I in turn get "vac: could not connect to server: Connection refused". Any help would be much appreciated it, I don't know what's going on. grm
