Hmm, are you sure it was not a typing error? And I assume you mean Linux
kernel?

Anyway, Coda works well with recent 2.4.x and also with 2.6-test kernels.

The latest released version is 6.0.3. It is the recommended one.

Coda is barely used in production, that's right. There are many aspects
which decide if it is suitable for your purposes
 - typical file size (hundreds Mb and more per file not to recommend)
 - number of files to be served ("typical Unix files" size distribution
   translates to a total of max 20-30 Gb per server)
 - if there is a chance for conflicting updates from different clients
 - if your users can accept possible conflicts or client reinitializations
 - is a delay at the first open() acceptable
 - ...

Hmm, never touched Coda rpms. Probably yes - that is, rpm should do the
setup. Then you probably have to start venus, via an /etc/init.d/....
script.
