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
