Operating Systems Solaris NFS with a NAS: permanently inconsistent directory state across clients Post 302938966 by cosmojetz on Friday 20th of March 2015 11:19:55 AM

The inode number of the problem file in question is: 1080094

Yes, the NFS server is Linux-based.

Re. ensure mount points are 755: yes, they are; otherwise I wouldn't be able to create any directories/files. Note that the problem occurs only with some newly created directories, but when it does occur, it is consistent (directory can never be read).

Regarding the other problem (perhaps related): even with freshly mounted nfs dirs, the two clients show different group permissions for all files/dirs:

Example of same dir:
Client1:
drwxrwx---+ 58 user group
Client2:
drwx------+ 58 user group

Both user and group are defined with same ids in /etc/passwd, /etc/group. What config might be faulty to warrant this behavior?

Thanks.
