Re: [SSI-users] perl file test (-e) intermittent failure over NFS using bash-ll

Hi Brian,

I have already done this with no success. The reiserfs partition can be
accessed fine from the node on which I mounted it. It cannot be seen
from the other nodes (I carried out a control experiment with a ext3
partition just to make sure I was doing it right).

my fstab had "node=node-with-actual-reiserfs-partition"
and cfstab had "reiserfs cfs"

Have not tested xfs yet.

Is anyone working on it?

Thanks,
Indraneel
