I don't know the answer, but observed that the user "li" has two
different local uids on the two machines (501 on dock and 500 on breeze).
Would that be the problem?

I know that Coda used to require the local uid to be the same 
as the Coda uid.  I believe this has been changed.  But is it true
that the uids of the same user on different clients still have
to be same?  Can someone update us on this?
