I have fixed the problem with logging in from a drawterm to my
cpu/auth/file server. Based on a suggestion by Russ Cox, I
changed the bootes password. I first set the bootes password
and secstore key to the same value. I was still unable to log
in as kim and when I tried to log in as bootes, it complained
that I had typed in an incorrect password. After staring at
the notes I had taken during the initial installation, I saw
that the first time a ran auth/keyfs, I got the following
output:
term% auth/keyfs
bad nvram key
bad authentication id
bad authentication domain
can't read /dev/key, please enter machine key
Password: some_long_password
Confirm password: some_long_password
term%
This password was different than the one I was originally
using for bootes's secstore key and password. I have now
set the secstore key and the password to some_long_password.
After rebooting the cpu/auth/file server, I can log in both
as bootes and as kim from a drawterm. I am going to leave
things alone with regard to configuration until I get a
little more familiar with Plan 9.
I really appreciate all the help I received from this list.
