Hello.
I have just installed plan9 as a cpu/auth/fileserver in vmware. After lots
of work and hours of reinstalling and messing around with networking and
bridging I finally got drawterm to connect to it.
Here's what I get:

user: bootes
bootes@something.net password:
cpu: failed to chdir to "C:\"

When I move drawterm.exe around C:\ changes to whereever it's placed.
I use the version of drawterm.exe from http://swtch.com/drawterm/. I can
both from plan9 to windows and from windows to plan9. I use the "host-only"
network setting in vmware because I couldn't get bridging to work (well, I
could, but then something happened....)
I downloaded the iso yesterday and at the moment I'm not capable of getting
it to pull from sources.
