This seems to be a common problem, and I think there is something wrong in the code, but I don't know what. I suggest trying to start venus like /usr/local/coda/sbin/venus -h w.x.y.z -r s.root using a numeric address for the host. You might also check dns and /etc/hosts and make sure that name resolution is working 100% ok. I find that I need to do this to start venus while disconnected from the network. This is important on a notebook, where I want to be able to get at files in coda even if I boot while remote. (But really, the start-disconnected and the find-addrs-on-start problems are separate issues - they just have the same solution, currently.)
