The error (errno 2) comes from the mknod() system call itself.
Definitely.
@Nikratio
Just to be sure, could you provide the result of:
- strace ~/tmp/test.py from NFS-mounted directory
- the relevant line of "mount" output
- "nfsstat -a" on client (and maybe server)
But you should know that mknod is disabled on some NFS servers for security
reasons, and see man mknod:
" POSIX.1-2001 says: "The only portable use of mknod() is to create a
FIFO-
special file. If mode is not S_IFIFO or dev is not 0, the behavior of
mknod()
is unspecified." However, nowadays one should never use mknod() for this
purpose; one should use mkfifo(3), a function especially defined for this
purpose.
Under Linux, this call cannot be used to create directories. One should
make
directories with mkdir(2).
There are many infelicities in the protocol underlying NFS. Some of
these
affect mknod()."
So try to avoid mknod over NFS...
