John, thanks,
If you follow the standalone CPU installation instructions on the wiki
to the letter, you will have a cpu/auth/file server. It's then easy to
export fossil to clients, just set up the configuration to listen on
the appropriate port (the document you want is linked from the
standa
Its good top remember the learning curve, ir does feel steep,
and then suddenly...
How far have you got installing your plan9 file/cpu/auth server?
I assume you have booted a terminal successfully?
here are some rough steps:
install a terminal
edit /lib/ndb/local to set up networ

Synopsis:
do I give up trying to make a distributed plan 9 home network?
Is plan 9 worth the struggle?
The concepts are clearly superior, is it the implementation, is it
the lack of coherent/correct (imho) documentation?

I noticed that the installation not
i just pushed out a new version that works around some
bugs, mostly in other programs, that i hadn't noticed last time,
- ssh forgets to ask for password?.
- drawterm doesn't do the right thing for v.2 p9any auth.
(from hgweb, cpu.c:485 should be < 0 not != 3.)
- rsa crash (nfactotum's fault)

Erik, if I want "fast" I know where to look.
I still have a 20€ seagate dockstar wasting my electricity for debian.
Bad as a terminal but maybe something for a server. I'm still unsure
if I should solder some serial. Did somebody already try plan 9 on
this box?

Trying to boot a plan9 diskless terminal (pc) over network. The boot
"master" is a combined cpu/fs/auth server.
dhcp/tftp works to set diskless terminal ethernet ip, fs and auth ip
addresses and downloads 9pxeload to diskless terminal. 9pxeload then
fails with an exception.
I suspect it
i was just wondering how long the file server has
been up here. it's amazing how much better things
have been since the neighbor's transformer stopped
