you must have a rather old system. try this:
srv -nq tcp!sources.cs.bell-labs.com sources /n/sources which should allow you to connect without having to authenticate. then you can pull. On 7/26/06, John Boutland <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I recently installed Plan9 and am enjoying getting to know more about it. The "Staying up to Date" documentation refers to the use of "pull" for on-line updating. Executing this produces a request for a user name and password, which I do not have. The same applies to 9fs. Earlier Plan9 documentation says that an update account is required and that instructions to obtain this are to be found at http://plan9.bell-labs.com/plan9dist/newaccount.html. This page is apparently no longer available and I'm unable to find any reference as to how to go about obtaining such an account. Any help would be appreciated. John
