check secstore(1)

check dossrv(4) and look at the permissions on /srv/dos.  it's most
likey due to being drawterm-ed in with a different id than 'bootes',
who owns things on the cpu.  lastly check /rc/bin/9fat: (and friends)
for more hints

i find that reading the Plan9 sources is very educational.  after that
the contrib directory on sources is useful.
