By doing all the complicated dance _without_ these two commands, I > achieve I have _globally_ accesible files served by the penelopa machine. i'm not sure i understand what you are doing. you shouldn't be running plumber as eve (typically bootes) on a cpu server to add stuff to the default namespace. typically what one would do to accomplish what you are doing on a cpu server is to use /lib/namespace.$machine to mount your fs as none, or in this case a user with only read permissions. this will add all the stuff listed to the namespace of any process cpu'ing in. (though not to the console's namespace; this needs to be done in /rc/bin/cpurc.) you can store whatever authentication keys you require in addition to the eve's key in secstore. > Hopefully I explained... sounds very complicated. i'm not sure i understand. - erik
