Hi,

I have my home directory mounted on a coda volume and often get conflicts
for no obvious reason. It usually turns out that one of the programs I was
running created/updated a lock or temporary file. As these files are in
various places all over my home directory, it is rather difficult to find
them. Looking at the checkpointed CML sometimes gives a clue about which
file to look at, 'find -lname "@*"' sometimes helps (usually times out on
my machine, apparently my server responds too slowly to a big find).

I'm quite sure venus knows which files are in conflict. Would it be
possible to add a 'listconflicts' command to cfs that shows the locations
of the conflicting files? At least for me it would save a lot of time.


Another idea: currently, as soon as a volume gets write-disconnected
because of a pending conflict, no updates on this volume at all are sent
to the server, even those in non-conflicting files. Would it be possible
to create a partial-disconnection mode where coda keeps sending updates of
non-conflicting files to the server? Or maybe another cfs command that
forces an update of non-conflicting files once.


Next suggestion: I sometimes end up in disconnected operation because my
token expired. cfs listvol just shows me that I'm disconnected but not
why. By now I know that it's usually because of a missing token, but
sometimes it takes a while to remember... Would be nice if cfs listvol
reported a cause for disconnection (i.e. no valid token, no connection to
server).


Last but not least: repair always tells me
  coda_pioctl: Venus returns: -107 for (5cb1ff88.ff000001.00000001.00000001)
  WARNING: YOU DON'T HAVE TOKENS.  YOU MIGHT WANT TO AUTHENTICATE FIRST
even when I do have tokens (and repairing works). What am I doing wrong
here?


Thanks for the help
