Hi, I've updated one of my -current machines this week (previous update was in february). Now I see a strange effect (it seems only on NFS mounts): ls or even echo * will list only some files (strange enough the first files from the normal, alphabetically ordered list). If I change something in the directory (delete a file or create a new one) for some time the complete listing will appear but after sime time (seconds to a minute or so) again only part of the files is listed. A ktrace on ls /usr/src/lib/libc/gen shows that getdirentries is called only once (returning 4096). For a full listing getdirentries is called 5 times with the last returning 0. I can still open files that are not listed if I know their name, though. The NFS server is a Windows 2008 server with an OpenText NFS Server which works without problems to all the other FreeBSD machines. So what could that be? Regards, hartihome | help
