Hey Eero, Thanks for the reply.
I did not want to stray from the distro for ease of updates and that is the latest release provided by CentOS 5.3. I can't use ACLs because one of the filesystems I am sharing is ocfs2 although I do have the same behavior on ext3 filesystem. ocfs2 does not come with support for ACLs out of the box. While I could compile ocfs2 to support ACLs that is something I am trying to avoid... Any idea what could be done with the current configuration?
