Here's a couple of newbie questions for you all; I apologize in
advance for trying your patience:
I recently installed Plan 9 4th edition off of an installation CD-ROM
downloaded on 29 Sept 2003. Sticking to the defaults, I wound up with
a stand-alone terminal running a local fossil filesystem.
Question 1: What is the proper way to overcome fossil's access
controls in order to perform administrative tasks (such as editing
/rc/bin/termrc)? Is there a means of turning off access control with
fossil as there is with kfs, or does one create a user with
administrative group memberships?
Question 2: Based on the number of helpful examples on the web, kfs
appears to be a well-trodden path. However, it seems that fossil is
the way of the future. Which filesystem is more appropriate for my
stand-alone terminal, fossil or kfs?
Thanks,
