This could be almost anything. What did you use as rootservers= in /etc/coda/venus.conf? Can you actually ping the name you used as rootserver? Can you successfully use rpc2ping to whatever you set as rootserver? It is possible to set up a TCP connection you your machine locally with telnet or something? (i.e. telnet <servername> 25 should connect to the smtp port) Does getvolinfo <servername> <rootvolname> work? Did you use the hostname= option in server.conf? This binds the server to a specific network interface instead of all possible interfaces, so it will not even see packets that are sent to the loopback device. check /etc/coda/server.conf and lsof -i :2432 output. Does a DNS lookup of your hostname give you the right ip-address for the server? compare the output of "host `hostname`" to the ip-address of your network interface in the ifconfig output. If you set a hostname-ip mapping in /etc/hosts it might not match the actual address given by DHCP. Does /etc/hosts happen to have the hostname associated with 127.0.0.1? Do you have a firewall that stops locally originated packets from arriving on your 'external' interface address? JanReceived on 2003-07-25 12:09:39
