fundamental FS

[William Gunnells <gunnells@gmail.com>]

So the networking seems strange and redundant to say the least
I’m just using the template that comes with plan9. Things both plan9 installs work somewhat

My MacMini has the following:

auth=cirno authdom=thintank
input=thinktank ip=172.27.0.0 ipmask=255.255.255.0
	ipgw=172.27.0.254
	dns=8.8.8.8
	auth=cirno
	dnsdom=thinktank
	cpu=cirno
	smtp=cirno

ip=172.27.0.67 sys=cirno dom=cirno.attlocal.net ether=080027f9ec98
sys=cirno ether=080027f9ec98


I can connect to it just fine and I can drawterm to it from multiple systems. But some those lines seem redundant.

On my laptop I have the following. 

auth=foo authdom=yoda
ipnet=yoda ip-192.168.1.0 ipmask 255.255.255.0
	ipgw=192.168.1.1
	dns=8.8.8.8
	auth=foo
	dnsdom=yoda
	cpu=foo
	smtp=foo

ip=192.168.1.172 sys=foo dom=foo.yoda ether=525400123336
ip=172.27.0.67 sys=cirno dom=cirono.attlocal.net ether=080027f9ec98
sys=foo ether=525400123336

I can drawterm form openbsd to 192.168.1.172 and to the mac at 172.27.0.67 just fine

from foo I would like to talk to cirno

cpu% cpu -h 172.27.0.67 -a p9 -u glenda
cpu: can’t dial: 172.27.0.67: connection rejected

Why is it getting rejected. 

ip/ping -n 1 -i 1 172.27.0.67
sending 1 64 byte message 1 ms apart to imp!172.27.0.67!1
0: rtt 25985 us, avg ryt 25985 us, ttl = 254

sorry I had to type that out. I didn’t know the unicode for that and I have not configured upas. 
Either way it can ping thinktank on mac mini

I also thought perhaps I could try 9fs cirno

but I got the following
sry: dial net!cirno!fs: connection rejected

Any ideas what I’m missing?

This might seem cumbersome but I take my laptop with me wherever I go and I would like to dump files back and forth. After reading the docs this seemed like the way to use things without all the ssh scp moving files around.
