in particular this means having an entry that looks like

ip=192.168.0.140 sys=ocilla sys=new ether=00259024695c

(pcs will need additional configuration.)  this entry
gives you the ip address/mac address/name association.
to associate a file server, etc. with this machine the customary
way is via an ipnet entry.  e.g.

# note this network contains my ip address
#
# note that the subnetmask is based off the width of the internel
# representation, a 128-bit ipv6 address.
ipnet=athensnat ip=192.168.0.0 ipmask=/120
        fs=aska.quanstro.net
        ipgw=192.168.0.4
        dns=192.168.0.136
        dnsdomain=quanstro.net
        authdom=plan9.quanstro.net
        auth=ladd

one can verify the correct setup with ndb/ipquery.
e.g.

ndb/ipquery sys ocilla fs
ndb/ipquery sys ocilla ipgw
