Upon reboot, I cannot change file access permissions of files in a directory that is nfs mounted (using NFS4): $ chmod 0600 $path chmod: Changing permissions of `$path': Input/output error In the kernel log I am getting these gems: [ 275.990233] decode_attr_group: reply buffer overflowed in line 2678.<4>decode _attr_group: reply buffer overflowed in line 2678.<4>decode_attr_group: reply bu ffer overflowed in line 2678.<4>decode_attr_group: reply buffer overflowed in li ne 2678.<4>decode_attr_group: reply buffer overflowed in line 2678.<4>decode_att r_group: reply buffer overflowed in line 2678.
