Hi,

I know, auth can be tricky, but it's a long time since I configured
authentication.  Without having further information about your setup I
can only recommend reading this doc:
http://kamalatta.ddnss.de/config/Plan9Tutorial.txt.

It helped me a lot configuring my server.  Just try to find the step
you probably missed.

I hope, that will help you.

P.S.: I don't know the full background, but connecting as the
hostowner seems to have other prerequisites.
