Hello everybody,

I'm having a little problem using a NFS-exported JFS.

The symptom:

The last entry in a directory does not show up when using the midnight 
commander, xmms, find or similar programs. It shows up when using ls or 
"echo *", though.
This does however not happen with exported ext3 or reiserfs volumes.
It is independent of the nfs daemon used (linux kernel / userspace nfs 
daemon tried).

The system:
NFS-server: tested with
linux-2.4.17 patched with lvm-1.0.1, cryptoapi 2.4.15-1 and jfs 1.0.11
linux-2.4.12 patched with lvm-1.0.1-rc4 and jfs 1.0.7
linux-2.4.9 patched with the version that has been the latest in those days

NFS-client: tested with
linux-2.4.17 patched with lvm-1.0.1, cryptoapi 2.4.15-1 and jfs 1.0.11
linux-2.4.16 patched with lvm-1.0.1, cryptoapi-2.4.15-1 and jfs 1.0.10
linux-2.4.10-SuSE
linux-2.4.9 patched as above.

For those who wonder about RAID:
JFS behaves well on linux software RAID 1/5, with and without LVM 
between the raid and the filesystem, and also on loopback devices. It 
just is not fully NFS-exportable.

Regards,
Christian
