Actually, I installed my test versions from samba all the time.  I
suspect the problem has to do with getting cygwin and the wise
installer script working together properly.  Sometimes I have had the
install fail the first time and by rerunning the the install, it
works.  It is typically happens when someone installs cygwin at the
request of the Coda install program.  I have tried many things to find
out why it sometimes fails on the first try, but have not found out.
Once I have had a successful install, a uninstall followed by a 
reinstall rarely fails.

There may be a bigger problem when you try to run venus.  I have
had several recent reports of RVM problems.  I have not had
the time to track down those current problems.  Sorry.
