Permission problems. Can you umount the NAS and get a look at what the permissions were on the old full directory ?

OK, if I understand you correctly, the server via eth0 mounts the NAS from 192.168.x.x Then, the server exports /var/snd via eth1 on 192.168.y.y and the workstations mount /var/snd from 192.168.y.y That's fine. It may cause some latency issues, because the server needs to read the disk via eth0, cache it, then write it back out via eth1. Shouldn't be a problem as long as your network cards are fast enough. Reading, caching, then writing back out the same card would keep that one card pretty busy, but they are full duplex so it "shouldn't" really matter. You could reduce the latency by re-configuring the NAS to export the file system directly on 192.168.y.y and eliminate your server from the man-in-the-middle caching, but you'd also need to reconfigure each workstation to mount from that NAS. That pretty much depends on the work load and power of the machine acting as server. -- Cowboy http://cowboy.cwf1.com Learning French is trivial: the word for horse is cheval, and everything else follows in the same way. -- Alan J.
