I don't run it personally.  Jorge, is it expected to fail in the
presence of delegations?

If you run the chmod from the same client, it won't necessarily revoke
the delegation.

If you run it from another client or run it directly on the server, it
should.

Probably not.  I don't think there's a way to turn off delegations from
the linux client.

The server may have a way to turn off delegations.  E.g. on a linux
server "echo 0>/proc/sys/fs/leases-enable" before starting knfsd should
do it.
