I'm fairly certain that NFSv4 is supported under Solaris 10/ZFS and FreeBSD/ZFS via the standard "share" binary or the sharenfs ZFS property, right? In mounting an NFS share on my FreeBSD test machine via the following: mount -t nfs -o rw,nfsv4 ipaddress:/share /path/to/share/directory I'm unable to change the permissions of any of these files via a standard chmod on the client (FreeBSD) side. What are NFSv4 ACLs, and is this in any way relevant to my problem here? Do ACLs need to be set in order to use a volume like I can an NFSv3 volume, which works just fine for me? Or, if you wish to address this question in a different way: what do I have to do to get a volume I can mount as an NFSv3 volume and work on without any problems to work as an NFSv4 volume? I'm using FBSD 8.1 on this test box. -- Joe Auty, NetMusician NetMusician helps musicians, bands and artists create beautiful, professional, custom designed, career-essential websites that are easy to maintain and to integrate with popular social networks. www.netmusician.org joe@netmusician.org
