Hi,

I wanted to motivate students to learn and use Plan 9 and Inferno in Indi=
a.
To do this, I am trying to set up a small network with Plan 9 server and
terminals.

I tried to assist in installing Plan 9 and ran into trouble. So far, I am
used to kfs and kfs-based server only. I havent tried to use fossil as th=
e
file server yet. But for this installation, I tried fossil based
installation. After the base installation was done, I didnt know what to =
do
because the Wiki documentation doesnt clearly say what is the next step. =
I
am not sure, if I need to use disk/kfscmd (that are specified for kfs) or
not.

Now, I have fossil-based standalone Plan 9 installation ready. I want to
make it auth/cpu/file server.

Now, here are my questions:

- What documentation sections should I follow to make it auth/cpu/file
server?
- Do I have to make flproto file for fossil server or is it automatically
taken care? (I went through "Setting Up Fossil" section but I am not sure
which one to do and not)
- Do I have to start fossil or is it automatic?
- Do I have to start fossil admin process in a window?
- How do I add users?
- How do I shutdown the server reliably?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks
