Beats me. The network trace does indeed seem to show a succesful create (and a preceding access op that allows access that I would have expected to fail). I don't see how that could have happened--the server doesn't actually enforce the ACL itself, it depends on common vfs code for that, so there's probably something obvious we're overlooking. You're positive the file's being created in the same directory that you set that acl on? --b. -- 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
