Plan 9 on L4
|
| |
Recently found a paper (again) documenting some work going on here. I've lately sort of had a resurrected interest in OKL4, and I'm always interested in Plan 9 stuff, so I was wondering what's happened here or if there's any code to show for it.

secuser bugs
|
| |
i submitted a patch to secuser. i noticed that the month printed was off by one. according to secuser one year from today would be (in the odd ddmmyyyyy format it used) 04002011. i changed that to yyyymmdd and fixed a handful of bugs. one year from today is now 20110104. - erik

And ... cpu% auth/secstore -g factotum secstore password: auth/secstore: error: account rtr expired at Sat Jan 2 03:59:59 GMT 2010 secstore password:... more »
