Yes. 9pccpuf is a CPU server kernel with fossil. You set up the system as you do with a CPU server. (You might want to disable some services in /rc/bin/service and /rc/bin/service.auth if you already have a CPU/Auth server). > It's not really clear to me how it works. You can mostly follow http://cm.bell-labs.com/wiki/plan9/Configuring_a_standalone_CPU_server/index.html Just ignore http://cm.bell-labs.com/wiki/plan9/Installing_a_Plan_9_File_Server/index.html because this is about the old WORM file server /sys/src/fs. When the system is running, you find a 'fileserver' console by connecting to /srv/fscons. # con /srv/fscons See fossilcons(8) for what to do there and how to make fossil listen to the network. Hope this helps and isn't too verbose, finally. ;-) Heiko
