Looks like it should work for any user with a key for proto=mschap.
Yep, I don't think I have any users with said key, nor am I
immediately aware of how to add that. But I'm sure I can find out.
Considering what I want to use this for, I could probably just write a
simple program with "listen" to do the same thing.
I just like to distribute redundant copies of a backup I make nightly
of my home directory and I thought my plan 9 file/cpu/auth server was
a good candidate.
I've tried and failed to get the Python 9p client to connect to my
Plan 9 box as well. Drawterm works to this box but the 9p python
stuff fails to connect apparently. Should be the same port numbers
right?

No, I haven't; perhaps I should be glad. Generally I connect Plan 9 and
MacOS in the other direction, with the Mac as the server using u9fs.
See execnet(4) - this works very nicely.
NFS on mac os x can get into a state where you really ought to reboot
the whole machine but you may not know it.
I'm a huge fan of sshnet and the one tip o' the day that shows how to
turn 0 into a srv for a u9fs command via ssh. Those two in
combination are better than any ssh port forwarding I've done in terms
of simplicity and ease of tracking the ports. ;-)
