Ok. Well, for libixp, the cannonical server example is wmii's
fs.c, but it's not simple. Your best bet is probably,

     http://sqweek.dnsdojo.org/code/m9u/download

You'd probably be better off starting with Plan 9's 9p docs,
though:

     http://plan9.bell-labs.com/sys/man/5/INDEX.html
     http://9p.cat-v.org/documentation

Also, there are scores of examples in the Plan 9 source code.
libixp's server API is based on Plan 9's lib9p, so there's a lot
of overlap. The only big differences are libixp's lack of file
trees and addition of srv_utils.c (which is, unfortunately,
undocumented but incredibly useful for simple servers).
