authchk: command to check authenication to plan9 source fileserver by rsc@plan9.bell-labs.com

if you're having trouble authenticating, this will help you figure out whether the problem is ndb or your password. if this program successfully connects, then it's probably that your password has been mangled/forgotten/etc.
