i realize that venti doesn't speak 9p at all. but what i don't understand is while what you say is theoretically true, there is currently no way to tell venti to post to /srv. venti demands and address (-a) that it announce(2)s.
why does venti not have a -s argument? and, since you mention it, why doesn't venti use 9p? it would seem that authentication would be critical if you're running venti on a separate machine from the fossil. and it would seem that using announce wouldn't make sense if one always ran fossil and venti on the same machine. so what's the part that i'm missing? - erik On Tue Sep 19 03:08:52 CDT 2006, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > if fossl+venti on the > > same machine is a common setup, shouldn't they should be able to > > communicate without the > > network stack? > > Venti doesn't speak 9p2000 (it has its own RPC protocol), so it can't > just be mounted from a local /srv like normal Plan 9 services. >
