	Hmm...here's what I know after trying (and failing) tonight:

	- The precompiled binary client sets up two Windows NT services: "coda"
and "venus." "venus" requires "coda" in order to operate.
	- The same condition holds true in the Coda 6.0.6 source tree. However,
it appears that no module built from said source tree provides the
"coda" service; only "venus" is provided (by venus.exe). (IOW, the only
place I found any of the requisite NT syscalls was in the source for venus.)
	- The icky NT install/remove service code is not enabled by default; to
use it, and its associated command line options, one must edit
coda-src/venus/nt_util.cc and coda-src/venus/venus.cc.
	- Because "coda" cannot be provided, the following output is produced
by venus when one tries to run it:

23:32:01 Coda Venus, version 6.0.6

23:32:01 /usr/coda/LOG size is 2709674 bytes

23:32:03 nt_initialize_ipc: trying to start coda file system.
23:32:03 nt_initialize_ipc: CreateFile failed. Is the coda installed
properly?

	The nt_initialize_ipc function is in nt_util.cc; before printing its
output, it a) calls CreateFile to make some kind of device node and
fails, b) tries to start the "coda" service (which doesn't work), and c)
tries to create the device node again, whereupon it fails once more and
dies.
	So the big questions now are "What module provides the 'coda' service,
and how do I get it/turn it on?"
