Maybe next week (when I return from 4 days in recluse writing NT Coda kernel code) I can help more with clog: All you can do after a vanilla install is (NOT as root -- root cannot clog): clog admin (note: you are getting tokens for user admin). password: changeme The messages you show may be debugging output after a first attempt to use clog failed. Clog admin ought to return (perhaps after 30secs) and then ctokens should show the tokens. As to adding users: a user with his her group membership in principle resides in the vice.pdb file; vice.pcf is an index into this file for fast lookups. You add users by recreating the vice.pdb vice.pcf files from groups.coda and users.coda. This is totally bad, and a better tool to manage Coda groups and users is forthcoming - see this list, the Yale Protection Server messages. Passwords, like in Kerberos reside somewhere else. While you can set up an initial password file (and must do so to get an administrator) adding other users and changing their passwords is done with the au program. A member of System:Aministrator group can edit other peoples passwords. - Peter - On Fri, 11 Sep 1998, Jeff Breidenbach wrote: > > With Peter's good help, I seem to have a working 4.6.5 Coda server and > client.
