Hi, I'm checking out if coda could be useful for me (as I did some year ago, but I had different needs then), and I've some minor comments and questions. I'm installing 5.3.10 rpms on a i386 redhat linux 7 system. First some kudos: the package look very professional, and so does the documentation. The client worked out of the box against testserver.coda.cs.cmu.du, which impressed me. * the scripts add stuff to /etc/conf.modules, ideally it should try /etc/modules.conf first (if it exist). * `vice-setup-rvm' didn't work because it didn't find `/usr/sbin/rvmutl'. Shouldn't it be part of the coda-server rpm? * what's the status of Coda behind NAT devices? I got coda-client to work fine on a clean redhat7 box, but another box with linux-2.4.0-test9 behind a NAT device printed the following. I'm not sure whether it's related to 2.4.0t9 or NAT though... 17:37:05 /usr/coda/LOG size is 1321908 bytes 17:37:05 /usr/coda/DATA size is 5287632 bytes 17:37:05 Initializing RVM data... 17:37:06 ...done 17:37:06 Loading RVM data 17:37:06 starting VDB scan 17:37:06 1 volume replicas 17:37:06 0 replicated volumes 17:37:06 0 CML entries allocated 17:37:06 0 CML entries on free-list 17:37:06 starting FSDB scan (2083, 50000) (25, 75, 4) 17:37:06 0 cache files in table (0 blocks) 17:37:06 2083 cache files on free-list 17:37:06 starting HDB scan 17:37:06 0 hdb entries in table 17:37:06 0 hdb entries on free-list 17:37:06 MarinerInit: socket bind failed <--- ? 17:37:07 Initial LRDB allocation 17:37:07 Getting Root Volume information... 17:37:23 Venus starting... 17:37:24 /coda now mounted.
