Hi, everyone.  Very confusing problem here.  I'm in write-disconnect
mode on a Coda volume (probably ever since I took the server, firewall,
and VPN down for a bit to rebuild each).

I've made sure that ...

	* I have a token;
	* the client can talk to the server (cmon, cfs cs);
	* there are no conflict-signifying dangling symlinks (find /coda
	  -type l).

I've tried ...

	* cfs lv: shows WriteDisconnected, unlimited quota, many blocks
	  available, write-back disabled;
	* cfs strong
	* cfs fr: always reports VIOC_SYNCCACHE: Invalid argument

The logs mention plenty of entries regarding how the volume has
'unrepaired local subtree(s)' and how it's skipping the CML
checkpointing.  (Exactly one per ten minutes, give or take a few
seconds.)

I'll freely admit I'm relatively new to Coda; it's been running nicely
for several months now, so I knew I was due for a failure that I would
be helpless to fix... :)

What am I missing here?  I'm running 5.3.17 -- would upgrading help?

Please CC me on replies.  Thanks.
