Howdy, I have a GlusterFS 3.1 volume being mounted on a client using NFS. From the client I created a directory under the mount point and set the permissions to root:groupa 750 My user account is a member of groupa on the client, yet I am unable to list the contents of the directory: $ ls -l /gfs/dir1 ls: /gfs/dir1/: Permission denied $ ls -ld /gfs/dir1 rwxr-x--- 9 root groupa 73728 Nov 9 09:44 /gfs/dir1/ $ groups myuser groupa I am able to list the directory as the user root. If I change the group ownership to my primary group, myuser, then I can successfully list the contents of the directory. $ sudo chgrp myuser /gfs/dir1 $ ls -ld /gfs/dir1 rwxr-x--- 9 root myuser 73728 Nov 9 09:44 /gfs/dir1/ $ ls -l /gfs/dir1 drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 73728 Mar 26 2010 testdir1 drwxr-x--- 4 root root 73728 Apr 8 2010 testdir2 drwxr-x--- 2 root root 73728 Aug 4 21:23 testdir3 The volume is being exported using the builtin GlusterFS NFS server. The servers and client are all CentOS 5.5 x86_64 boxes. Thanks for any suggestions, Mike ================================= Mike Hanby mhanby at uab.edu UAB School of Engineering Information Systems Specialist II IT HPCS / Research Computing
