I'm running Linxux 2.4.8-xfs with NFS v3 on:
dual 1 GHz PIII
2 GB RAM
Mylex DAC960 RAID card
5 Seagate Cheetah 73.4 GB hard drives
blah blah blah blah blah
It all works beautifully, EXCEPT we can't get NFS to use any UMASK besides
022. Is this an known XFS issue, or do I need to go bother someone else?
You just get permission Denied Errors?
And yes, I read the entry in the FAQ, but it said the problem was fixed after
2.4.5, which doesn't seem to be the case.
I believe the actual problem with pre 2.4.5 was that it would occasionally
have some NFS problems. Either bad speed or wrong modes. All those fixes
went into the 2.4.2 and 2.4.3 kernel that are shipped on XFS 1.0.1 AFAIK.
I think yours is entirely different. The combination of NFS and ACLs is
still unknown terrain and has some loopholes. I gather that the umask on
the NFS client is correctly set?

Every program has two purposes one for which
it was written and another for which it wasn't
I use the last kind.
