Thanks for the reply. We got the USB thump drive working after we reformatted the drive. After that it was able to see all files with no problems. Guess Solaris pcfs driver is very touchy when it comes to FAT file systems.

There are existing files on this USB thumb drive and can be access just fine from Linux, Windows and Mac. Formated with FAT16. But when I put the USB in a Sunray, it mounts fine but show no files? I can copy files to the USB and they will show up. But none of the existing files show up. I can then take the USB thumb drive and mount on Windows or Mac and see all the files plus the files I copied over when it was mounted on the sunray. Take the USB back to the sunray and it mounts but again only shows the files I copied over from the first time.

Any ideas here??

Try plugging this into a USB port on the server (Solaris box) and see
if you see the same behavior. If you do, the problem is most likely
in the pcfs kernel filesystem layer, since Sun Ray uses the Solaris
pcfs module to do the actual heavy-lifting in the kernel.
