Crank up a auth server and follow the instructions on config'ing ssh for each user you wish to provide with that server. I don't remember if this got left in the SysAdmin article but the process is detailed in the Hangar 18 How To, http://open-forge.com/hangar18/Plan9Intro.txt This document explains how to do a single I/O,cpu,auth server using kfs. This is the first thing you really need to build to create a working P9 cloud. My personal view is that it should be at minimal a three machine cloud. Two cpu servers, one running I/O and another running auth. The third will be a fileserver. Also, if you want to go -from- a P9 box to a non-P9 box you should look into 'vt'. It will make your life much easier than trying to do it from a standard rc prompt. This will save you some considerable agravation ;) -- -- Open Forge, LLC 24/365 Onsite Support for PCs, Networks, & Game Consoles 512-695-4126 (Austin, Tx.) help@open-forge.com irc.open-forge.com Hangar 18 Open Source Distributed Computing Using Plan 9 & Linux 512-451-7087 http://open-forge.org/hangar18 irc.open-forge.org James Choate 512-451-7087 ravage@ssz.com jchoate@open-forge.com
