[snip] It seems to be an issue with |FATTR4_ARCHIVE| ... I filed https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=293691 ("NFSv4.1 client trying to set |FATTR4_ARCHIVE| gets EPERM for file/dir creation attempts") for this, and added https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=292283 ("Bug 292283 - (JAVA) NFSv4.1 client trying to set FATTR4_SYSTEM or FATTR4_HIDDEN gets EPERM for file and dir creation attemps") as reference since the same kind of workaround seems to work. Next release for ms-nfs41-client includes a workaround (see https://github.com/kofemann/ms-nfs41-client/commit/7156d9f9deb25843e57fd455d8ec67951b82c737) which should avoid this bug, but I will remove that workaround as soon as a fixed release version of FreeBSD will become available... ---- Bye, Roland -- __ . . __ (o.\ \/ /.o) roland.mainz@nrubsig.org \__\/\/__/ MPEG specialist, C&&JAVA&&Sun&&Unix programmer /O /==\ O\ TEL +49 641 3992797 (;O/ \/ \O;)home | help
