I have seen the problem a long time ago with a server on hp700_ux807. The
client at the time was a DecStation (!) running OSF/1. Some files in the
directory would simply not be there. I actually reported that to Transarc
but the didn't have to to chase it through, it must have got lost. The
and the problem disappeared when using
an RS6000 as NFS translator. Also, we only saw the problem with the NFS on
OSF/1, for other machines everything worked fine.
I believe you're on a problem that only appears with a particular NFS
implementation and the AFS-NFS translator, and which has been around for
quite some time.
