I thought it worth checking.
Access permissions checks do not use name service. Checks uses the permission bits in the inode and the uid of the process and the directory. At that point in the kernel, no-one knows your name, only your uid). (Not even, I think, if you're using CIFS with Windows UUID) Casper _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
