[9front] [NOTICE] /sys/lib/dist/ndb update and purposed removal

[Jacob Moody]

All,

We just pushed up a change to /sys/lib/dist/ndb to update some of the root servers as
well as add a script for keeping it updated. These are usually copied to /lib/ndb
when creating the iso image, so if you would like to update your current /lib/ndb on
an existing installation this will have to be manually copied.

Additionally I would like to purpose the removal of some of the code in /sys/lib/dist/ndb/common.
This seems a bit silly to ship with every install, and would like to clean this up. If anyone is
currently relying on these entries please reply on this thread.


Thanks,
moody

For ease the following is the snippet we would like to remove:

#
# authdom declarations need to be visible on the inside network,
# even for outside machines.  putting them here ensures
# their visibility everywhere.
#

# bell labs
auth=sources.cs.bell-labs.com authdom=outside.plan9.bell-labs.com

# for geoff
auth=www.9netics.com authdom=9netics.com
auth=newcpu.9netics.net authdom=9netics.net
auth=mordor.tip9ug.jp authdom=tip9ug.jp

# for geoff's ipv6 testing
auth=9grid.hamnavoe.com
	authdom=hamnavoe.com
	authdom=9grid.hamnavoe.com

auth=whale.lsub.org
