:It turns out that the user was in 17 groups (DU supports up to 32).
:After I removed him from 2 groups & got his group count down to 15,
:all was well.

:After I upgrade the NFS server to a more recent -current, I'll test
:this again with a user in 17 groups.

Ahhh... I'm glad you found it. I was beginning to scratch my head.
NGROUPS_MAX is set to 16 (/usr/src/sys/sys/syslimits.h). You may
be able to patch the kernel to up the number of groups by upping
the value in that define and recompiling the kernel. I've never
tried this myself but it should work.
