Excerpts from mail: 21-Nov-99 coda test server by Ben_at_one.net

 One oddity that happened to me when I tried to use
"testserver.coda.cs.cmu.edu" is that I could ping and nslookup, but
venus still couldn't find the machine.  I put it in my /etc/hosts file
and all worked fine.. I'm still pretty baffled by it, BTW.  Only venus
couldn't find the machine and when I used gdb to see what venus was
trying to gethostbyname.. it was sure enough correct.
