Subject: [9fans] persuade contrib/install to work
Date: Tue, 26 May 2009 16:19:09 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <a560a5d00905260719h64aeae41q597ce42c7e7aaf27@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hello,

since I somehow still can't connect to the 'central sources' and want
to make some progress, I tried to follow some of your recent advices.
Instead of '9fs sources' I do

9fs sources.lsub.org
cd /n
bind sources.lsub.org/sources sources

so now it seems I have the state similar to after just '9fs sources'.
Now I'd like to do e.g.

contrib/install fgb/xml2

but I get
srv: timeout establishing connection to tcp!sources.cs.bell-labs.com!9fs
so as if contrib still wants to connect to the central sources...

How can I persuade contrib/install to use what I've already had under
/n/sources?

Thanks
Ruda
