Here are some very skeletal instructions for using
the client test code.

on server (assumes BSD style LD_LIBRARY_PATH):

mkdir /tmp/foo
cd lib9p
env LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. LIB9P_LOGGING=stderr example/server -h localhost -p 12345 /tmp/foo

(this can be run as a non-root user for now, but some things
only work when run as root)

on client (same machine as server, but can always be run as
non-root user):

cd lib9p/pytest
ONE TIME ONLY: copy testconf.ini.sample to testconf.ini, adjust to taste
./client.py

TODO: rework ./client so it can locate the .ini file better

########

IF USING diod (http://github.com/chaos/diod) AS THE SERVER ON
A LINUX MACHINE:

 - The instructions for running the server are (or were):
     sudo ./diod -f -d 1 -n -e /tmp/9
 - You must mkdir the exported 9pfs file system (e.g., mkdir /tmp/9).
 - While uname is not really used, aname (the attach name) IS used
   and must match the exported file system, e.g., testconf.ini
   must have "aname = /tmp/9".
