Hello,
I have a question about the use of the following switch with rpc.mountd.
-g or --manage-gids
It has come to my attention that the use of this switch is not working
well in Redhat v6. When I have a user who has a large group membership,
the following errors appear, and the "cd" command hangs.
Sep 5 14:50:04 srv043 rpc.mountd[2563]: qword_eol: fflush failed: errno
22 (Invalid argument)
Process :
root 2563 1 0 14:44 ? 00:00:00 rpc.mountd -g
The use of 60 groups is working well, but we have some users with more
than 100 groups, and those fails. For uid mapping we use Winbind.
/etc/exports :
/export server.company.com(rw,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash)
Client fstab :
server.company.com:/export /data nfs
nolock,defaults,user 1 2
Can anyone tell me what this error means ?
Greetings .. Richard Smits

Yes, the nfsd is from april this year, so i think you're right.
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 19960 Apr 20 19:21 /usr/sbin/rpc.nfsd
nfs-utils-1.2.3-7.el6.x86_64
I wil try to find a solution. Thank you for the information.

Probably means that the redhat package is missing upstream commit
9274e94db85bac04e170414cb8e0f4be271cde90
(which is from April this year, so not unlikely).
