Hi,
Iam trying to get a PC to diskless boot from a single KFS plan9 system.
I start the listeners on the Plan9 system (IL and TCP)
I would prefer to load my kernel accross the wire from the kfs system
but I cannot see how to do this from the info in 9load(8) or plan9.ini(8),
so I just boot a 9pcdisk from floppy.
Both systems use DHCP to get IP addresses.
I set fs= to the IP address of the kfs machine in plan9.ini.
However what do I set the auth server address to be,
and how should I authenticate?
Anyone help?
BTW our DHCP server doesn't talk to our DNS server so I have to
do everything by IP addresses (sigh)
-Steve
