	How can you tell that?  "Links: 2"?

	Yes, that is exactly what happened.  But the IO Block remained the
same.  Actually, it didn't remain the same, but it's still not what you
would expect.  Here's an excerpt:

# stat .
  File: "."
  Size: 2048            Blocks: 4          IO Block:
-4611716804752957440 Directory
Device: ah/10d  Inode: 1352058954  Links: 2
...
# cfs er .
# stat .
  File: "."
  Size: 2048            Blocks: 4          IO Block:
-4611718454020399104 Directory
Device: ah/10d  Inode: 1352058954  Links: 1


	Here are the values from venus.conf that aren't set to defaults:

realm=abc
cacheblocks=3145728
mapprivate=1
masquerade_port=2435

	And in case it matters, here's server.conf's non-default values from
one of the servers:

rvm_log="/vice/RVMLOG"
rvm_data="/vice/RVMDATA"
rvm_data_length="524288000"
ipaddress=x.x.x.x
rvmtruncate=5
trace=100
allow_sha=1

	Do you think the strange block size could indicate a problem or cause a
problem at some point?

	Here's some other info, in case it helps:

# df /coda
Filesystem           1k-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
coda                   3145728       464   2937779   1% /coda
# df /vicepa
Filesystem           1k-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda3             40313996   1318908  36947204   4% /vicepa


	On second thought, this might not have anything at all to do with coda.
So don't bother chasing it down.  It's either a problem with stat or
with our kernel, is my guess:

# stat /
  File: "/"
  Size: 4096            Blocks: 8          IO Block:
-4611715155485519872 Directory

	We're using the latest Redhat AS3 kernel.  We're also using a RAID
array, in case that has some impact.  Anyway, I think the only problem
here worth tracking down is why on a cp -r (and maybe other operations)
the link count isn't being set properly...

	Thanks again for your help, Jan.
