casually I needed to connect fossil to a hand started venti for some
repair work.

The environment variable 'venti' holds the 'net!host!port'
information, but you can also specify the venti host on the fossil
console with "fsys <name> venti <net!host!port>'

If dns is not running you may need to specify the ip and port
numerically.

I guess you will find fossil beeing started up with the -f switch, it
will read in its configuration from there.  Adapting the respective
'fsys <main> venti' command there is a way to get another venti.

Variables defined in plan9.ini become env variables, my plan9.ini's
have a "venti=..." line for all computers running venti.
