Hi Jeff
Thanks for the reply. I'm trying to make the files created in a
share take on group rw.
The trouble is that I've already tried setting the acl's via
nfs4_setfacl on the mounted share too (please see details below).
The acl + appears on the unmounted share and behaves as expected
even when it is not mounted. The mounted share however ignores the
acl I've set. I've tried remounting but still no acl is effective.
My workaround is to scan the folder and change the files to group rw
every few seconds.
Without looking at your details, apologies:
First, if you want an ace on a directory to be inherited by files and
directories created under that directory, make sure you're setting the f
and d flags (see nfs4_getfacl -H).
Second, there's a umask problem: posix acl inheritance overrides the
umask, but nfs4 acl inheritance isn't doing that. (The client combines
the create mode and the umask and sets both together, there's no way for
the server to even tell what the umask is.)
(We should do something about this if we can: maybe modifying the client
to scan the directory acl for any inheritable aces and leaving out the
umask if they're found? It has the obvious race, but I seem to recall
we live with that in the v3 case. Or maybe there's something more
clever, but this comes up every now and then and I can't remember a
better solution.)

Hi again
I have this:
nfs4_getfacl /mnt/CACTUS/dropbox/
A::OWNER@:rwaDxtTcCy
A::GROUP@:rwaDxtcy
A::EVERYONE@:tcy
A:fdi:OWNER@:rwaDxtTcCy
A:fdi:GROUP@:rwaDtcy
A:fdi:EVERYONE@:tcy
but files are created:
steve6@hh3:/mnt/CACTUS/dropbox> touch h3
ls -la
total 8
drwxrws--- 2 root suseusers 4096 Feb 19 11:21 .
drwxr-xr-x 9 root root 4096 Feb 19 11:11 ..
-rw-rw---- 1 steve6 suseusers 0 Feb 19 11:13 h
-rw-r----- 1 steve6 suseusers 0 Feb 19 11:21 h3
where h is a file created on the unmounted share and h3 on the nfs4
mounted share. IOW the file created does not have group rw. Ahhgghh!!
Can anyone see anything wrong?
Thanks so much for your patience.
Steve.
