I connect to unix machines from Plan 9 by installing fgb/openssh from contrib, binding /386/bin/openssh over /bin, and then using srvssh. The command line looks something like this: srvssh sl@phoenix phoenix && 9fs phoenix This mounts u9fs running as user sl on host phoenix in /n/phoenix. Alternately, taruti's scpu (ssh2 client written in go) can be used: srv -s 5 'scpu -u sl -h phoenix -notty -c u9fs -u sl -na none' phoenix /n/phoenix scpu is available here: https://bitbucket.org/taruti/scpu -sl
