Right it's there in the tree.. 
But I've tried the 6.0.2 stable, the 6.0.1 stable... 
Then i went to 6.0.2 on unstable tree... 
before i stopped and get back to my bed !!

This explain why my shell script return me a "WARNING : codasrv or codasrv-se
udp port not open" when i run it on new releases... 2 ports is no longer used !

At least I understood that I had nothing understood...
And that I have to work more.. 
Read a lot the ML, change conf, test, test, test...

I finnaly understood what a realm is.. ( i think / hope )
Now i mount the coda tree from a 6.0.2-1 client !! and clog !!!
Wooooooooooow !!!!!

During my introduce to new client I get disturbed by this :

--->5.3.20 coda-client
debpc1:/# cfs lv /coda/
 Status of volume 0x7f000000 (2130706432) named "codarootvol"

----> 6.0.2-1
debpc2:/# cfs lv /coda/
  Status of volume 0xff000001 (4278190081) named "CodaRoot"

So i thought i was on testserver at coda.cs.cmu because i did not get
0x7f000000, cfs whereis returned nothing, and acl where something like ro... 
I reconfigured the client each time thinking configuration was wrong...

But this is a new feather in coda-client.... 
( rvm client side upgrade.... )
The volume "CodaRoot" is something like the local cache ! right ?
And realms appears inside it !!!!

The auth server correctly started was not found...
Because realm conf was wrong !!!!!
Logic.

I think I gonna get everything work fine as i wish soonly..
Now got to clean all the sh... i've made everywhere ! :-P
And practice some more...
Tomorrow...
