Hi All,

  I have installed following versions of coda in linux-2.2.16 OS.

coda-debug-client-5.3.2-1.i386.rpm
coda-debug-server-5.3.2-1.i386.rpm

I installed vice and venus setup as described in the INSTALL.linux doc. I
first start the coda server on a machine wait.uccs.edu and then start the
venus client on vinci.uccs.edu.

I see following messages on the console of the machine where I start venus
client.

Date: Sun 09/16/101

The following messages are seen in the venus log on the client machine:

[ W(20) : 0000 : 16:27:01 ] NotifyUserOfServerDownEvent
[ W(20) : 0000 : 16:27:01 ] DiscoRef= 1

[ D(21) : 0000 : 16:27:01 ] WAIT OVER, elapsed = 14997.4

[ W(20) : 0000 : 16:27:02 ] ADMON STATS:  DMQ Advice NOT valid. (uid = 0)

After these messages the venus client terminates.

Following are the messages in server log file:

16:26:45 client_GetVenusId: got new host 128.198.192.193:2430
16:26:45 Building callback conn.
16:26:45 No idle WriteBack conns, building new one

16:32:39 Unbinding RPC2 connection 360388380


Surprisingly, with the same client setup if I try to connect to the test
coda server, namely testserver.coda.cs.cmu.edu, I get connected and then I
can play with /coda file system mounted on the client machine.

Could anyone tell as to why this is happening. I cannot use any other
version of linux I have to use linux-.2.216 for some reasons.

Thanks
