Dave How about a Google Wave for setting up Plan 9 CPU servers? :-) If you gave up on Wave previously, it's gotten a lot better in the last few months... It's also now open to anyone without invitation.

There's still a few glitches (e.g. python on plan 9 still has a way of exploding at times ... and 9vx can explode too ...) so I have to do it by hand; I want it to be a cron job. ron
Re: [9fans] Replica (partly?) stuck in time
I can't find a definition of /dist/replica/client/plan9.time. I noticed the permissions were weird for that directory (not writable by hostowner), and the contents seems odd: 12524436037182 The first number is in September of last year. I take the next to be the gen, although I'm not really clear how to interpret that. Fixing permissions made no difference. I'm stumped. Anyone have any ideas? it sounds like the fact that the plan9.time file doesn't match the log is the problem. it's not too hard to add some prints to applylog to figure out why it is making the decisions it makes. perhaps there's already a verbose option. - erik
