It is typically invoked on a Unix machine by inetd with +its standard input and output connected to a network connection, +typically TCP on an Ethernet. It typically runs as user root and +multiplexes access to multiple Plan 9 clients over the single wire. +It assumes Plan 9 uids match Unix login names, and changes to the +corresponding Unix effective uid when processing requests. U9fs +serves both 9P1 (the 9P protocol as used by the second and third +editions of Plan 9) and 9P2000. |
