Hello,
I'm looking for advice on how to build a small network of two file
servers. I'm hoping most servers to be Plan9, clients are Windows and
Mac OS X.
I have 2 houses separated by about 40ms of network latency. I want to
set some servers in each location and have all data accessible from

Are there any other options?
ken's fs is a kernel, and essentially gives you a 9p-accessible file

Right now (only one location) I am using a Solaris server with ZFS
that serves SMB and iSCSI. It works great, there's nothing wrong with
it, but I would like a Plan9 solution. Or do you think iSCSI would
perform better with this latency? (I can't use AoE as AoE is not
routable).

if the link is stable, cfs(4) might be useful.

Is 9p suitable for this? How will the 40ms latency affect 9p
operation? (I have 100Mbit).
With a strict request/response protocol you will get no more
than 64KB once every 80ms so your throughput at best will be
6.55Mbps or about 15 times slower than using HTTP/FTP on
100Mbps link for
