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?
