[9fans] Replace text in acme window with the plumber

Re: [9fans] standalone authserver on CF card

me this last weekend. For low volume you might want to stick to 4801's, although they are getting harder to find. If you need a 5501 you might want to wait for the next BIOS upgrade. I have both systems in stock so I can try. Thanks for that hint. I have the CF booting problem on the 5501

Re: [9fans] DNS server domain

2008-03-28 Thread Matthias Teege
the dnsdomain attribute is well-documented. what i didn't see is the convention for where to hang it in the database. generally, i do this by setting ipnet in /lib/ndb/local. e.g. I put it in my ndb/local and it works for the Plan 9 server % ndb/dnsquery cab cab.mteege.de ip
