This may be a stupid question - but - I have been using CS2.0 and just installed CS2.1 on a different site.  This new install doesn't have roller in the nav bar - but the files appear to be present.

Any thought on what happened and how I can get Roller represented in the Nav bar again.

Thanks

Roller got quite a bit of an overhaul between Community Server 2.0 and 2.1. The updated feature is now most often referred to as Mirrored Blogs/Content/Feeds. I believe the old roller would still work at /roller, but you'd need to add the new navigation item by adding a <link> element to the <navigation> section of SiteUrls.config.

As for the configuration of the mirrored content, that is found at ControlPanel > Administration > Blogs > Blogs. You'll see the ability to manage Mirrors for each blog independantly.

Hope that makes sense...
