hmmm. that may be an acceptable workaround, to have the headless box
mounting samba shares from the laptop for handing off to u9fs, and plan9
having to worry only about mounting filesystems from that box.

incidentally, this is a partition shared by windows and BSD on the
laptop. the idea is that plan9 would have access to the same files
regardless which OS was running on the other laptop at the time.

thanks much for the swift reply,
