[9fans] vmware & replica

[Nikolay Paskov]

Hi,
Is there a problem with vmware and replica? I ran

	disk/kfscmd allow
	replica/pull -v /dist/replica/network
	disk/kfscmd disallow

after that I rebooted the system and plan9 rejected to get the IP address
and DNS server via DHCP. My log file looks like that.

00:50:56:40:d3:e1 via vmnet8

I made an experiment and run clear copy. There was no problem.

Did I make something wrong ?

I put out new kernels that fix this and a bunch
of other weird bugs you might have observed over
the last couple days.  The new ipoput "no route" code
signaled the lack of route by erroring but some
callers weren't expecting an error.  Dave changed
it to be a return value, and now things seem better.

In particular it should fix the DHCP problem.
