Hi Which client, which server (distro and uname -a output) did you use? Also, what commands (setfacl,getfacl? nfs4_setfacl, nfs4_getfacl ? plus version) and parameters did you use? -->Andy On Jul 26, 2011, at 10:43 AM, Robert Marcano wrote: > Hi, This question is probably too simple for this nfs developer list, but I am intrigued to know if this is a bug or not, I do not find any other reference to anyone with this problem > > Ineed some help clarifying this issue in order to know if this is a bug or limits of the NFSv4 / POSIX ACL mapping before reporting it > > Creating a directory on the server with the following POSIX ACLs, rwx for the group "sharedgroup" and same defaults: > > ############################################################ > # file: directory > # owner: root > # group: root > user::rwx > group::r-x > group:sharedgroup:rwx > mask::rwx > other::--- > default:user::rwx > default:group::r-x > default:group:sharedgroup:rwx > default:mask::rwx > default:other::--- > ############################################################ > > Creating files with the same user with umask 022 on the server an on the NFS client, the files do not get the same POSIX ACL mask: > > ############################################################ > # file: client > # owner: test > # group: testgroup > user::rw- > group::r-x #effective:r-- > group:sharedgroup:rwx #effective:r-- > mask::r-- > other::r-- > > # file: server > # owner: test > # group: testgroup > user::rw- > group::r-x #effective:r-- > group:sharedgroup:rwx #effective:rw- > mask::rw- > other::r-- > ############################################################ > > Is this normal or a bug?, My interpretation is that even that the mapping of the ACLs is not 100% perfect this simple example should not be a problem.
