[9fans] TELNET from Remote Linux machine?

[Rory Savage]

I am new the Plan9 universe, so please don't flame me.  Anyhow, I got
IP based networking configured and working, and I was able to start
tcp services.  What I want/need is to have the ability to telnet into
the CPU Server from a remote linux machine.  I seem to be having an
authtentication problem.

When I telnet in to (try to) this is what happens;

$ telnet 192.168.1.21

Trying 192.168.1.21...
Connected to 192.168.1.21.
Escape character is '^]'.
user: rsavage
password: password: password: password: password: authentication
failure
Connection closed by foreign host.

What am I doing wrong?  The funny thing is I don't even have a
password on the system as it is, and when I try, I can't seem to make
it work.

I ran /bin/aux/listen il
      /bin/aux/listen tcp

      /bin/auth/keyfs

      and I got an error message

      ``can't read /dev/key, please enter machine key''

But /dev/key is owned by user `rsavage' in which I have started up the
system as.

Any ideas?    I wish there was a detail book on Plan9 :)

Thanks!!
