>>Anyone have a checklist of things to check for setting up the auth stuff?

i suspect there is a small step that's either easy to miss out
or easy to insert (given extrasensory knowledge).  i've set up
several plan9 systems several times without trouble, but there
seems to be Some Thing that i inadvertently do right or others
accidentally do wrong: too many other people have had trouble.

>>itself is the authserver? I have to use 0.1.0.0 as the auth
>>server IP address, or it won't boot up (the default says it

try setting the address in /lib/ndb/local for auth= should to the
true IP address.  use 0.1.0.0 only for the prompt for auth server
address during the bootstrap.  otherwise, it might well become confused.
