We had a problem with this at the last place I worked -- turned out to be the Linux clients getting an all-zero UUID on startup. When somebody without permission with the same UUID would auth to the cell and start doing file IO, our machines would quit being able to use IP-based ACLs. I thought there was a fix in the 1.4 branch at some point, but we got around it quickly by running fs uuid -generate on startup after the link came up.

This Linux box we're trying to set up the same way is having
none of it.

The admin work:

ADMIN% pts creategroup silkhosts
group silkhosts has id -1594
ADMIN% pts adduser X.Y.11.70 silkhosts
ADMIN% pts adduser X.Y.11.39 silkhosts
ADMIN% pwd
/afs/whee/project/silk
ADMIN% fs sa . silkhosts rlidwk
ADMIN%

The failure:
