Okay ... It's been a while since I ran vclock, but are you sure it's
hung? It looks reasonable, it has managed to connect to the server and
created a new node. But perhaps it should print more progress
information, like the ID of the created node and so on ...

I hope you realize that vclock is a non-graphical client, it will not
open a window showing you a clock. All it does is create a bitmap node
on the server, and then draw a digital clock into that node. You need
to connect with a rendering client to see the clock update.

No, that should be fine.

Sorry that I can't be of more assistance; I'm not on a box with Verse
on it right now, and have recently moved house so I don't have my home
box set up either. :/
