Ah, slight misunderstanding here.

  9. Extending the kernel library

  The kernel library was written in such a way that it can easily be extended
  without modifying any kernel objects.  The user manager and driver object
  contain hooks that allow routing of some calls to different objects.

  When you begin building, start with making a new user object.  This object
  should reside in /usr/System/obj.  The user object must inherit
> /kernel/lib/user.  Next, create a telnet connection manager which can be
> installed using "/kernel/sys/userd"->set_telnet_manager(obj).  Finally,
  create /usr/System/initd.c which handles system-specific initialization
  (for instance, the telnet connection manager must be installed from its
  create() function).

You must call the function in another object, it's not a kfun nor is
it defined in the auto-object.  The only restriction is that the call
should be coming from an objct in ~System/.

Hope this helps. :)

Erwin.
