Hi, I guess we are not marking the inode attribute as invalid when we set the ACL value. For ex: /d# mkdir sub3 /d# ls -dl sub3 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Nov 10 17:56 sub3 /d# nfs4_setfacl -s A:fd:EVERYONE@:rwax sub3 /d# ls -dl sub3 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Nov 10 17:56 sub3 /d# On the server i have the mode bits as /d# ls -dl sub3 drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 4096 Nov 10 17:56 sub3 /d# -aneesh -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
