elaborate on CPUD(as remote):9p mount no such device
On the remote, in a chroot, I am running:
cpud -d -remote -init
On my host machine, I then invoke:
export PATH="$(pwd)/bin:$PATH"
cpu -timeout9p 1000ms -d victure hello
Here is what I get:
On the remote (env vars stripped):
1970/01/01 00:02:43 CPUD:attempt to bind 127.0.0.1 0 granted

I am not exactly sure where I get with that.
This was likely due to the vendor kernel not supporting 9p. I'll recheck and see what the current behavior is, rewrite to a more elaborate error message with a hint or something.
yeah, one option is to have it print out the right config values to add to the kernel?
Leaving this here as an FYI: I was facing the same issue and the comment from @orangecms put me on the right path to working around this. I was trying to run cpud on AmazonLinux and failing. Tried with Ubuntu and it worked just fine.
Hi, I have encountered a similar problem. I am trying to run cpud on a machine with a custom distro. On the remote I run:
cpud -pk /home/root/.ssh/key.pub
An on the host:
./cpu -key $KEY -namespace=/home 192.168.4.189 /bin/date
CPUD:Namespace: 9p mount no such device
If this is a kernel config issue, does anybody know how to enable support for 9p?
