I'm also not having any luck with py9p. So, there seems to be something =
wonky between 9vx and my FreeBSD VPS. I can imagine two possibilities:

1. My VPS or hosting provider has some kind of obnoxious firewall =
between me and 9vx
2. 9vx has to be set up somehow to access it

The problem with #1 is that I can access it from p9p on the same machine =
as 9vx, and the problem with #2 is that I can access sources without any =
trouble.

Anybody know what I'm missing, or have a good idea how to debug it?

Thanks,
