Heyas,
    I made the sick mistake yesterday of trying to hack
9pcfs on to my Compaq Armada 7770DMT. Oh well, it was
fun anyway. The IDE drive _bombed_ out and wont be
usable until I fix the first few sectors or whatever
holds the hdd's info. (On boot the machine complains
of disk controller failure). Anyways, I took out the
drive and decided to turn the box into a diskless
terminal because I cant take it out of the house anyways
since the battery decided to commit sixteen bit suicide.
Using my CPU/Auth server as a file server via the 'listen'
command in KFS I'm successfully booting the terminal with
no problems what-so-ever. However, I'd like to wrap the
file server connection in ESP so everything my terminal
sees isn't in the clear. I read through esp kernel code
and wrote some test programs, but, I am still unsure of
the best way to implement ESP over a IP connection. Does
anyone have any sample code that might be relevant in this
situation?
Suggestions? Code? Etc? Kthx.
