Bug Description
Binary package hint: kernel-
Having gone through 2.6.17-{8,9} I am finding that on an NFS client of my Edgy NFS server (exported home dirs for automount by clients) I am getting Permission denied errors for just some files:
$ id
uid=1001(brian) gid=1001(brian) groups=
$ ls -ld .ssh{,/
drwx------ 2 brian brian 4096 Jul 4 13:48 .ssh/
-rw-r--r-- 1 brian brian 1004 Dec 29 2001 .ssh/authorized
-rw-r--r-- 1 brian brian 130456 Aug 10 15:19 .ssh/known_hosts
$ wc -l .ssh/{known_
462 .ssh/known_hosts
wc: .ssh/authorized
462 total
As you can see, there is no reason why trying to read .ssh/authorized
$ wc -l .ssh/{known_
wc: .ssh/known_hosts: Permission denied
wc: .ssh/authorized
0 total
And again only a minute or two later:
$ wc -l .ssh/{known_
462 .ssh/known_hosts
0 .ssh/authorized
462 total
And the count from .ssh/authorized
This was all working fine in the 2.6.17-6 kernel. I only just in the last day revved up through -8 and now -9 and these problems started.
