Re: tlug: CODA distributed filesystem

[Frank Bennett <bennett@example.com>]

An addendum to that note about building CODA.  A Very Important
Addendum.

In the process of building the server on one of the Suns here, I
discovered to my chagrin that the Makefile behaves differently if
you type "make coda".  With just "make", you get scads of errors,
and the fixit script and jiggery-pokery that I wrote about can
just barely get things functioning.  With "make coda", every
directory seems to get prepared properly before the compiling
starts.  Fewer errors.  Better code.  A happier planet.

The moral of the story is, of course, to read the instructions.
But which instructions?  There are so many to choose from ...

Cheers,
