Does anyone have a copy available ?

Thanks,

Hello!

the user running auth/changeuser needs to be in the adm group.  If you
follow the standard instructions auth/changeuse is run by bootes, the
hostowner of the auth server.

Changeing the ownership of the adm files seems the wrong way to go
for me.  The "sys" group is for filesystem administration, and the
"adm" group for authentication, these should be kept separate.

I have put together setup instructions at:

 http://www.magma.com.ni/moin/Plan9Tutorial

trying to smooth the rough edges of the Plan 9 setup instructions.
Everything there is taken from the original Plan 9 Wiki and other Plan 9
documentation, nothing new there, just put nicely together (I hope).

Hi,

I attempted once more to set up a CPU server from the instructions in
the wiki and ended up with the same problem. Everything goes as planned
until I reboot with the CPU kernel. I used glenda (which I
double-checked was in group sys) and made sure to keep track of the keys
I used. Yet, when I reboot (after resetting the nvram), I cannot write
to /adm/keys.who, and thus auth/changeuser fails for any user, including
bootes. So, I can't add anyone to the auth server, and of course cannot
login.

I set options -AWP on my fossil and of course that worked. But the
current instructions do not mention this (and I didn't quite get what
was meant in the discussions from Feb. or so when this was removed from
the wiki). Drawterm works fine at this point.
But when I remove -AWP, it once again cannot read /adm/keys
and /adm/keys.who, so drawterm and auth/changeuser both fail.

So--what should I do next?

Thanks.
-Claudio
