Hi,

I'm a new Coda user and I'm having some trouble getting Coda going.  I set
up 3 Servers and that seemed to go ok.  However, when I try to connect to
them,
Venus gave the following:

---------------------------------
[root_at_corvette /etc]# venus -init

----------------------

I am running Coda 5.3.13 on a Redhat 6.2 system (Linux 2.2).  Is it
important
that it says "Kernel version ioctl failed"?  Why is the mount
failing?  Can
someone please help me?

I also tried to connnect to testserver.coda.cs.cmu.edu, and i get the
following:

-------------------------
[root_at_corvette src]# venus -init

-------------------------

As the manual said, I checked /etc/services and it seems ok.  There is a
firewall here, and that could be part of the problem connecting to
testserver, but it should have no bearing on my own servers.

Thanks a lot,
Ryan
