Thanks Rune. I think I am going to give up on CODA for now. I am running a 
single server setup (one server for file sharing, mail, web, etc...) and I 
want to keep to a low power configuration, so I do not want to distribute 
the functions to different server, therefore my server needs to also be a 
client.

Add to that the complexity of the authentication, I was really looking at 
CODA for home directories, but the authentication scheme makes it very 
complicated.

I might look at it again later, there are a lot of things I like about it, 
but right now those two issues are show stoppers.

Thanks again for the help.
