Hi.
I just installed Plan 9 on an old machine, and I'm having a bit of
trouble. I am used to Linux, so any comparisons you might make to Linux
should make sense to me.
First, I installed Plan 9 from CD with the fossil file system. It
installed just fine; when I rebooted, I chose to login as "glenda" and
came up with a nice screen. Now I want to add some other users, but I
haven't had much luck. I tried "con /srv/fscons" and then typing "uname
john john", then quitting. I then ran "auth/changeuser john" and tried
to set my password, but I got a "permission denied" error. Help?
I am also a bit confused about how to login/logout. Do you have to
reboot every time you want to change users?
Thanks
John F.
