Hello everybody! Came back to Plan 9 recently, and I'm running into some trouble. I'm running Plan 9 on QEMU and wanted to use ftpfs to exchange data with my FreeBSD system. When logging in via ftpfs, though, I get an empty /n/ftp directory. This is how far I got: My FreeBSD machine runs

I'm giving a talk at Usenix in Santa Clara in 2 weeks on u-root, and I'll be setting up a Plan 9 BOF (assuming there is room) with a difference: we're going to demo the GPL'ed Plan 9 code base booting on a small amd64 cluster (assuming it's working by then!). The system is built with gcc, although

FYI, for what it's worth, I usually use SSH to sync files between my Linux laptop and my Plan 9 VM. Also, last time I tried, VirtualBox was a bit faster in emulating Plan 9 than QEMU, especially without KVM. On June 25, 2015 12:25:36 PM CDT, Nils M Holm n...@t3x.org wrote: Hello everybody!

ftpfs works fine for me. I tried it against ftp.sunet.se, username=anaonymous, password=your-email-a...@domain.dom and /n/ftp contains stuff. Its worth realising ftpfs gets its directory listing by parsing the output of the ls command in the ftp protocol, so it has

Two things on stats: 1) The load figures on OS X seem to be mostly useless: they indicate the machine is pretty much constantly pegged, when it’s really mostly idle (as per ’top’ and Activity Monitor). Are other people seeing this, as well? (Results on FreeBSD and Linux match my expectations.)
