Subject: [9fans] vncs and a single terminal cfg

Hello,

I have only one machine to use with plan9 right now, and so I've 
configured it as a terminal.  I would love to be able to use vncs, so 
that I can access it from other platforms.  It seems that in order to 
use vncs, I need an auth server.  I've been trying to enable my 
terminal to act as an auth server, based on the message thread of a 
few months ago.  However, before I get too deep, can I actually use a 
single machine as a terminal and a self-serving auth server as well?  
It's goofy, I know.

I got as far as using wrkey, starting the auth service, adding keys 
to factotum, and using auth/debug to check that I can access myself. 
:)  auth/debug gives: cannot dial auth server: connection refused.
 
Thanks,
Frank
