Here is /etc/exports on a BSD machine: /export/2 -network 131.193.180 -mask 255.255.255.0 /export/2 -network 131.193.179 -mask 255.255.255.0 /export/2 -network 131.193.178 -mask 255.255.255.0 galois.math.uic.edu is on 131.193.178 subnet. export/2 is mounted on a solaris machine under /home/2. The mode on /home/2/vladimir is 711: $ ls -ld /home/2/vladimir drwx--x--x 30 vladimir 4096 Nov 3 23:29 /home/2/vladimir However, root on galois is able to list files in /home/2/vladimir. This is not the case when I mount a directory from a solaris NFS server: directories with mode 711 cannot be listed. Also, we have 2 linux machines (with different kernel versions) mounting directories from the same FBSD server -- on one of them root is able to list directories, on the other one attempt to list directories that have mode 711 produces "Operation not permitted" message. This doesn't make any sense to me. Thanks for any explanations!
