Hi Bradley,

A couple of things off the top of my head:

> /coda:/dev/cfs0:testserver.coda.cs.cmu.edu:/usr/coda/venus.cache:100:1
								   ^^^
A 100K cache seems a bit small.  Venus automagically sizes RVM based on the
cache size and possibley something isn't big enogh.  MLE's are
'Modification Log Entries'  they are used for logging when you are
operating disconnected.  Let us know if this is the problem, so we
can either fix it or print out a better error message.

Also, the first time you run your venus it needs to be told to
initialize RVM.  This can be done 2 ways, touch
	/usr/coda/venus.cache/INIT 
before starting venus OR run venus with the -init switch.  Be careful
when you initialize RVM after you start using Coda, anything in your
chache will be lost.

Good Luck!
Josh
