The directory was created by a local user (not root) with access mode 200 (Write only for owner). When I perform the ACCESS call as a owner (who created that directory), I see that the ACCESS reply has access set to 0x0. My /etc/exports just has just this one line :"/nfsshare *(rw,sync)" Thanks Dilip Kumar On Thu, Aug 28, 2008 at 10:34 AM, J.
