Subject: [9fans] my plan9 server isn't responding
Topicbox-Message-UUID: 7108fa4c-ead7-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025

Hi group, I need help configuring a plan9 server (auth+dns+dhcp+fs).

I already have a plan9 system with /lib/ndb/local, /cfg/$sysname/cpurc
configured as per the wiki and other net sources. I compiled the
pccpuf kernel with no problems and declared it at /n/9fat/plan9.ini,
and I am able to boot the new system ok. I use ndb/ipquery, ndb/cs and
ndb/dnsquery to test that my server is well configured and all of them
give expected results. Then, I instaled another plan9 system (a
terminal) and told it to use dhcp with ip/ipconfig. I can see the
right ip given to it by the server in /net/ipselftab, but:

1) I can not resolv any name from my terminal, even though my server's
ndb database has declared a subnet with an default dns entry.
2) I can not authenticate to the server with any user from my terminal
system even though I can see the attempted conecction in the fossil
console.

I have to machines declared in ndb/local, akenaton ip 10.0.0.2 and
nefertiti ip 10.0.0.3, I can't say things like:
9fs akenaton
or
cpu -h akenaton
or even
ip/ping -n 4 akenaton

as the terminal system (nefertiti) don't know the dns.
Is is not supposed dhcp will feed nefertiti not only with an ip but
also dns an auth information?

What is missing in my configuration? Any clues?
If someone needs more information about any of my conf. files, please
tell me.
thanks in advance
