-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'm still trying to create and mount a volume, and am confused horribly by the docs, particularly the "conventions" regarding volume names. At various points (eg. chapter 9 of the admin guide) I see names like u.hbovik (which somehow gets mapped to /coda/usr/hbovik - is this relation hardcoded into coda somehow?). If this is the case can I only create subdirs called user, system and project? In the HOWTO there is another example using coda:root as a volume name - is the ":" significant here. Also, I understood that the root volume was mounted automatically, so why would I want to do it manually? How can I verify whether the root volume (called codaroot in my case) is successfully mounted? The other area is authentication - during vice-setup, I set the (unix) user knoppix, UID 1000, to be the admin account. Is the unix account valid, or do I need to duplicate it in the coda system? Since knoppix seemingly cannot create files under /coda, I tried using pdbtool: root_at_kryten:~# pdbtool pdbtool> nui knoppix 1000 ID alread used by "knoppix". pdbtool> quit root_at_kryten:~# au -h kryten.localdomain nu Your Vice name: knoppix Your password: RPC2_Bind() --> RPC2_NOTAUTHENTICATED (F) My attempt to use clog also failed: 26 $ clog -host kryten.localdomain knoppix username: knoppix_at_testserver.coda.cs.cmu.edu Password: Invalid login (RPC2_NOTAUTHENTICATED (F)). BTW auth2 is running: root 290 0.0 0.3 1792 868 ? S 14:45 0:00 auth2 Sorry to be such a pain, but the docs just don't seem to relate to my experience at all! - -- Ian Smith Saltstone Media Limited The Old Workhouse, Union Road, Kingsbridge, Devon TQ7 1EQ tel: +44 (0) 1548 854038 fax: +44 (0) 1548 854039 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/V1BEqPkrLbscPPERAt8aAJ0cRkTZEDngaVK8GLHGMbWN8Oac0QCgmJqz XJ1J5c4ymuHORJh4OULbHaM= =/iJn -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----Received on 2003-09-04 10:46:31
