What is the best option for building a Plan 9 gateway? Does a Plan 9
gateway machine need to be an authentication server? Or can any server
be a gateway as long as it has 2 NICs? I'm curious to how others have
solved the problem. Thanks in advance.

gateway machine need not be an auth server. also, in principle, even one
NIC should be enough (in which case, it is an one-armed router) and i
think plan 9 will also work that way.

thanks
