Hi Angelo,

You need to configure some DNS servers in e.g. /lib/ndb/local.

I have some notes on setting up a standalone Plan 9 CPU and file =20
server at the following URL:

http://wildflower.diablonet.net/~scaron/p9setup.html

It sounds like you're just trying to set up a terminal so this won't =20
be quite the same, but, really, a standalone terminal is of limited =20
use; setting up a proper server is much more interesting. You should =20
consider it.

Best,

-Sean
