Coda File System

DNS needed for Coda?

Hi,

I've just moved my Coda servers and clients to an independent
subnet (IP 10.x.x.x) and reinstalled coda. The root volume
with only one server works fine. I experience however 
problems as soon as I create a second server - even before 
creating a replicated volume. 

When I include a second server in the files in /vice/db
(like described in the HowTo and like it worked before)
the client doesn't start any more. After "Venus starting"
I get a "[1]+ Killed    venus".

Both servers show these messages in SrvLog:
16:05:43 GetVolObj: VGetVolume(7f000000) error 103
16:05:43 GrabFsObj, GetVolObj error Volume not online

My subnet has no DNS server. Does Coda need a DNS server,
for example for reverse lookup, or is the file /etc/hosts
on all clients and servers enough?

Thanks,
  Frank
