You can start a 9p server under Inferno by issuing the 137 - following command: 138 - ; styxlisten -A tcp!*!564 export '#U*' 133 + Protocol specifications are maintained on github: 134 + http://ericvh.github.com/9p-rfc/ 139 135 140 - The -A specifies an unauthenticated export. The 564 is the port # (you may 141 - have to choose a higher port number if running as a normal user). The '#U*' 142 - specifies exporting the root of the Linux name space. You may specify a 143 - subset of the namespace by extending the path: '#U*'/tmp would just export 144 - /tmp. For more information, see the Inferno manual pages covering styxlisten 145 - and export. 136 + 9p client and server implementations are listed on 137 + http://9p.cat-v.org/implementations 146 138 147 - A Linux version of the 9p server is now maintained under the npfs project 148 - on sourceforge (http://sourceforge.net/projects/npfs). The currently 149 - maintained version is the single-threaded version of the server (named spfs) 150 - available from the same SVN repository. 139 + A 9p2000.L server is being developed by LLNL and can be found 140 + at http://code.google.com/p/diod/ 151 141 152 142 There are user and developer mailing lists available through the v9fs project 153 143 on sourceforge (http://sourceforge.net/projects/v9fs). 154 144 155 - A stand-alone version of the module (which should build for any 2.6 kernel) 156 - is available via (http://github.com/ericvh/9p-sac/tree/master) 157 - 158 - News and other information is maintained on SWiK (http://swik.net/v9fs) 159 - and the Wiki (http://sf.net/apps/mediawiki/v9fs/index.php). 145 + News and other information is maintained on a Wiki. 146 + (http://sf.net/apps/mediawiki/v9fs/index.php). 160 147 161 148 Bug reports may be issued through the kernel.org bugzilla 162 149 (http://bugzilla.kernel.org)
