Thanks to all for your kind help.
My problems turned out to be towfold.
As I was just using a crossover cable between two ethernet cards
the auto media detection on the cards somtimes fails. This is easy to
fix, I just added a media=10BaseT clause to the ether0=tyle=xxx lines
in plan9.ini on both machines.
Seccondly I was using the using aux/listen to start il17031 rather than
starting
disk/kfscmd listen (Doh !)
I started to build a fossil server but gave up in the end. The transfer
rate seemed very slow over ethernet (30% utilisation from looking at stats),
I haven't investigated.
If any of the fossil developers is interested I was using an fs interleaved
filesystem accross 3 fairly fast disks and got "disk: io=10021 at 8.779ms"
I got about 25 of these in 3 hours of mkfs | mkext before giving up.
The times increased slowly about 13ms but the counts stayed at 10010 +- 10.
