Message-ID: <64864806510dce5a163fdf71374abac8@granite.cias.osakafu-u.ac.jp> (raw)
The problem I reported for my two PCs Plan 9 system at home was solved.
Thank you very much Dave!!
> I followed the description of Wiki,
This was not true in details. ☺
I modified, erraneously :-), two things from Wiki [Configuring a standalone CPU server]
page. As I changed two factors in a time, I still have some doubt about the procedure
I did...
One is
>! echo blahblahblah >/dev/sdC0/nvram.
The other is
>! disk/kfscmd 'listen il!*!17008'
The reason of the first change was that I had no /dev/sdC0/nvram, so
I wanted to use /n/a:/plan9.nvr on auth/kfs machine? It seems it works.
However, for clarify the problem, I made /dev/sdC0/nvram by parting
the swap area had been made before by disk/prep -n /dev/sdC0/plan9
command. It worked seemlessly.
For the second, I changed the name of /rc/bin/service/_il17008 to
/rc/bin/service/il17008 and omitted the suggested line above in /rc/bin/cpurc.
Then, I renamed back that file, and maked it live of above disk/kfscmd line
at the last of /rc/bin/cpurc file.
After making it the contents of /adm/keys* to zero, I rebooted the auth/kfs
server, and entering some information for factotum, and auth/changeuser
for every users on the machine, all the problems have gone. Now, I'm
enjoying Auth/kfs server and two diskless 9 terminals booted from floppy
(those have disks for Win98 and Linux). Yes, this is very convenient for
home use of Plan 9 like myself.
I recommend this configuration to all the people who want to use Plan 9
at home. In the case of just standalone 9 terminal with disk(kfs), we can't
use factotum, and it's not enough to keep privacy in home. ☺ For this
two PCs configuration, you need only one additional machine dedicated
to Plan 9 Auth/kfs server. The other 9 terminals are hired from another
machine ususally working for Win etc without any change to them, just
booting them from Plan 9 boot floppy for use 9pc.
Thank you again, Dave Presotto!

PS I suppose plan9.nvr in booting floppy of Auth/kfs server can replace the
/dev/sdC0/nvram subpartition. Am I wrong?
