Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gamin
Gamin Version: 0.1.9-2ubuntu2 (Ubuntu 8.04) seems to not notice file
creation events on an NFS4 share. It *does* recognize local file
creation under NFS version 3.
First, we'll mount with NFSv3:
machine# mount -t nfs server:/home /mnt/
machine$ gvfs-monitor-dir /mnt/valentyn/
[ in other terminal: ]machine$ touch /mnt/valentyn/demofile
Directory Monitor Event:
Child = /mnt/valentyn/demofile
Event = CREATED
Directory Monitor Event:
Child = /mnt/valentyn/demofile
Event = ATTRIB CHANGED
Directory Monitor Event:
Child = /mnt/valentyn/demofile
Event = CHANGES_DONE_HINT
Now, we'll try this again with nfsv4:
machine# mount -t nfs4 server:/home /mnt/
machine$ gvfs-monitor-dir /mnt/valentyn/
[ in other terminal: ]machine$ touch /mnt/valentyn/demofile
Directory Monitor Event:
Child = /mnt/valentyn/demofile
Event = ATTRIB CHANGED
Directory Monitor Event:
Child = /mnt/valentyn/demofile
Event = CHANGES_DONE_HINT
As you see, the ATTRIB CHANGED and CHANGES_DONE_HINT events show up, but
the CREATED event is missing.
This only goes for files, if you create a directory, it will show up
immediately (as expected).
