Script started on Tue Dec 24 16:09:54 2002
(quinot@zuydcoote) ~ $ echo x >> foo
  --> this works and correctly creates the file
(quinot@zuydcoote) ~ $ echo x >> foo
zsh: permission denied: foo

The only network traffic caused by the second command line is:

16:14:37.753138 10.10.0.161.427357544 > 10.10.0.140.2049: 124 getattr fh Unknown/1
16:14:37.753642 10.10.0.140.2049 > 10.10.0.161.427357544: reply ok 96 getattr DIR 40755 ids 529/0 sz 4096
16:14:37.753861 10.10.0.161.427357545 > 10.10.0.140.2049: 124 getattr fh Unknown/1
16:14:37.754307 10.10.0.140.2049 > 10.10.0.161.427357545: reply ok 96 getattr REG 100644 ids 529/101 sz 2

(no traffic if the file's attributes are still in cache, apparently).

The 5.0 client seems to work fine with a FreeBSD 4.7-REL NFS server.
The Linux server is offering NFSv2 only, the 4.7 server has v2 and v3,
both of which work correctly.

tcpdump excerpt with the 4.7 server:
