Hmmm... How do you run the Hurd? Do you run linux on bare metal and then Hurd on qemu? When you are typing "herd.local" what does that mean? I suppose that means on your linux machine you are typing "ssh hurd.local"? May I help you create your email into some kind of manual page/wiki article/blog post?
