Hi Dennis,
We're using NFS Ganesha here as well. I can send you my configuration which is working but we squash users and groups down to a particular uid/gid, so it may not be super helpful for you.
I think files not being immediately visible is working as intended, due to directory caching. I _believe_ what you need to do is set the following (comments shamelessly stolen from the Gluster FSAL):
# If thuis flag is set to yes, a getattr is performed each time a readdir is done
# if mtime do not match, the directory is renewed. This will make the cache more
# synchronous to the FSAL, but will strongly decrease the directory cache performance
Use_Getattr_Directory_Invalidation = true;
Hope that helps.
Thanks,
Lincoln
