I'm sending this from my machine. The output of ndb/ipquery sys csplan9 auth is
auth=csplan9.rit.edu

Running auth/debug gives me the following:
p9sk1 key: proto=p9sk1 user=bootes dom=rit.edu !hex? !password?
	successfully dialed auth server
	password for bootes@rit.edu [hit enter to skip test]: 
	ticket request using bootes@rit.edu key succeeded
	cpu server owner for domain rit.edu [bootes]: 
	password for bootes@rit.edu [hit enter to skip test]: 
	ticket request using bootes@rit.edu key succeeded

To change your password just run passwd, auth/changeuser is an adminstrative
command to change somone elses password rather than your own. It is normally
run from the auth server's console.

The error "cs: cannot translate service" is more telling, I think your
lib/ndb/local doesn't have enough info, to tell ndb/cs how to find your
auth server.

You can check by typing:

	ndb/ipquery sys $sysname auth

If you run auth/debug you can check this and some other bits and pieces.
