Stifle that while you're fixing the > default, please. It uses the setting you (probably) specified with debconf when venus was installed. Instead of changing venus.conf directly use "dpkg-reconfigure coda-client" to provide the defaults. I've removed the default setting in the debconf.template. At the moment the cache size and default authentication realm are both managed by debconf. Should such things not be managed at all? It would make the various platforms more similar in the way of configuration. Looking at what we do for client configuration, in most cases there is really little need to change any of the default options except for maybe cachesize. venus-setup mostly just checks a couple of things that tend to be missing on some systems (/dev/cfs0 character device, /etc/services entries).
