[9fans] Announcing The Virtual Plan 9 Server Cookbook

["David L. Craig" <dlc.usa@gmail.com>]

This is the publication I wished I had had several
months ago, so I decided to write it.  With hundreds
of screen shots and a few choice scripts (the main one
based on maht's make_cpuauth contribution to Plan 9),
it walks a UNIX sysadmin of modest experience through
installing Debian Sid onto an x86_64 box capable of
full-virtualization and then installing a virtual Bell
Labs Plan 9 computer therein and transforming it from
a stand-alone non-networked terminal configuration
into an Internet-capable cpu/auth server.

This alpha version has all the information needed to
do this--only the Overview section remains to be
written.  I would like to get other folks' evaluations
of the work so it can be improved.  It is released
under Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike and GPL2.

I really hope it is helpful to a lot of people as time
goes by.
