you'll need to srv with a username and password (normally it attaches as
none). it used to be that you can get an account on sources automatically,
but i have no idea how you get one now (perhaps something to add to the wiki
if it isn't there

There is an acme program called "Wiki" that you
are supposed to run instead of opening /mnt/wiki directly.

Please do *exactly* what you are told in

http://plan9.bell-labs.com/wiki/plan...ons/index.html

and try again.

You certainly don't need an account to access or edit the wiki. The
only thing an account is needed for this days is if you want to have
your own /n/sources/contrib
directory.

Ram: open /acme/wiki/guide in acme, execute the first line of that
file, then execute the third line. You are set.
