Hi,

Actually I had problems with creating rootvolume using the command
createvol_rep (not getting the proper hostname because of the entry in
/etc/hosts). And later as suggested I have edited that file to have the
correct
name. Then also I got the same message
"RPC2_NewBinding to server server1 failed with RPC2_NOBINDING(F)
Failure to make volume on server1!. Abort.."
Then I reinstalled linux in the machine(server1) so that I can have
seperate partitions for vice,vicepa,RVMDATA and RVMLOG.
Even then I got the same message while trying to create rootvolume using
createvol_rep.

Can anbody please help me out. I am stuck here for the last two  days.

Thanks,
Madhav

Sorry for all the junk I am putting here. But I am stuck here.
This is my vice-setup conversation.

Setting up users and groups for Coda

You need to give me a uid (not 0) and username (not root)
for a Coda System:Administrator member on this server,
(sort of a Coda super user)

Enter the uid of this user: 1
Enter the username of this user: admin

You need a small log disk partition, preferrably on a disk by itself.
You need a metadata partition of approx 4% of you filespace.

For trial purposes you may give oridnary files instead of raw
partitions. Keep all size small if you do this.
Production servers will want partitions for speed.

-------------------------------------------------------
WARNING: you are going to play with your partitions now.
verify all answers you give.
-------------------------------------------------------

WARNING: these choices are not easy to change once you are up and running.

Are you ready to set up RVM? [yes/no] yes

What is your log partition? /dev/hda12

The log size must be smaller than you log partition.
We recommend not more than 30M log size, and 2M is a good choice.
What is your log size? (enter as e.g. '2M') 12M

What is your data partition (or file)? /dev/hda11

The data size must be approx 4% of you server file space.
We have templates for servers of approx: 500M, 1G, 2.2G, 3.3G, 8G
(you can store less, but not more on such servers).
The corresponding data sizes are  22M, 44M, 90M, 130M, 315M.
(use 315M only on very fast machines)
Pick one of the defaults, otherwise I will bail out

What is the size of you data partition (or file)
[22M,44M, 90M, 130M, 200M, 315M]: 133M

--------------------------------------------------------
WARNING: DATA and LOG partitions are about to be wiped.
--------------------------------------------------------

  --- log area: /dev/hda12, size 12M.
  --- data area: /dev/hda11, size 133M.

Proceed, and wipe out old data? [y/n] y


LOG file has been initialized!

Read rdsinit(8) use rdsinit to configure your data area.

Your server directories will hold the files (not directories).
You can currently only have one directory per disk partition.

Where shall we store your data [/vicepa]? /vicepa
Shall I set up a vicetab entry for approx 256000 files for /vicepa (y/n) y
Now initializing the partition. This takes a while....
Partition /vicepa: inodes in use: 0, total: 262144.

Date: Fri 03/10/2000

17:14:18 Partition /vicepa: 382720K available (minfree=5%), 382715K free.
done.
Server directory is set up!

Congratulations: your configuration is ready...and now
to get going do the following:
 - start the auth2 server as: auth2
 - start rpc2portmap as: rpc2portmap
 - start updateclnt as:  updateclnt -h server1 -q coda_udpsrv
 - start updatesrv as: updatesrv -p /vice/db
 - start the fileserver: startserver &
 - wait until the server is up: tail -f /vice/srv/SrvLog
 - create your root volume: createvol_rep rootvol E0000100 /vicepa
 - setup a client: venus-setup server1 20000
 - start venus: venus
 - enjoy Coda.
