Hi there,

I'm new to coda and trying to set it up for use in the following
configuration: One coda server in our corporate network and a notebook
as coda client.  Ofcourse I am planning to have coda take care of the
synchronisation of files between our corporate network (which is backed
up by our sys admins) and my notebook.  All sounds sensible so far, I
hope. ;-)

Both machines run Debian GNU/Linux (Woody) and I installed coda-client
on the notebook and coda-server & coda-update (all version 5.3.19-1) on
the server.  I ran "vice-setup" on the server and it all seems to be ok
even though I'm not yet sure what exactly will be in /vice and /vicepa
but I'll figure that out some time later.  Might be nice to explain that
in the howto though.

Starting the server seems to work but running "createvol_rep coda:root
E0000100 /vicepa" results in the following message:

        pc6607:~# createvol_rep coda:root E0000100 /vicepa
        Getting initial version of /vice/vol/BigVolumeList.
        V_BindToServer: binding to host pc6607
        RPC2_NewBinding to server pc6607 failed with RPC2_NOBINDING (F)
        awk: cannot open /vice/vol/BigVolumeList (No such file or directory)
        awk: cannot open /vice/vol/BigVolumeList (No such file or directory)
        V_BindToServer: binding to host pc6607
        RPC2_NewBinding to server pc6607 failed with RPC2_NOBINDING (F)
        Failed to dump the current VRDB into /vice/db/VRList.new
        pc6607:~#

Looks like a problem with resolving the DNS even though "ping pc6607"
and "ping pc6607.natlab.research.philips.com" both work and the hostname
seems to be set properly.

Any suggestions on how to solve this?
