Aloha -

I've gotten a basic netmsg server/translator running that relays Mach
messages across a TCP/IP connection.

The code is available at g...@github.com:BrentBaccala/netmsg.git

Basic usage:

netmsg -s (server)

settrans -a node netmsg localhost (client)

It's got a lot of problems.  No authentication handoff; everything the
client requests happens with the permissions of the server.  exec'ing a
file doesn't work; the last RPC before the hang is memory_object_init.
emacs doesn't work; the last RPC before the hang is io_reauthenticate.

Nevertheless, ls, cp, mkdir all work through it.

I'm going to keep plugging away at it; let me know what you think.

Richard was right, by the way - it was best to just start over from scratch.
