NFS behaviour
NFS experts out there, I have a question about synchronisation: Imagine two hosts A (NFS server), host B (NFS client). Process on A modifies a file. When does process on B get notification about the change? Does it depend on the time set on the different hosts? Is it a caching issue or what? With two Linux systems we are seeing all sorts of strange effects with such a setup. Just curious if FreeBSD behaves better here. Well, I could try it out, but if it is a general problem anyway with NFS I'd prefer to discuss it theoretically :-) -- Chris Christoph P. U.
