# Coda Documentation

## old and new

March 1998

This is a collection of documents some of which are in progress. It includes PostScript and PowerPoint documents for downloading. The HTML here, reflects the content of the PostScript documents.

## 1. Manuals and internals in HTML format

The following will be your primary resource for getting up and running:

- The Coda HOWTO
- Introductory Paper about Coda

The original design and studies that were done can be found at Scientific papers from the Coda project

We have a few manuals - these have details for programmers and advanced system administration, but are less well organised than the coda-howto:

- The Coda Administration and User Manual
- The RVM Manual
- The RPC2 Manual

Papers are being written about the implementation:

- Linux Virtual File System
- Some short scribbles about the volume databases
- Notes and explanations about Coda securtiy.
- A detailed document about hthe kernel Venus interaction.
- A document describing the new directory system we are implementing now.
- A few of the server internals, to be extended.
- A document describing the main Venus data structures
