Thank you Daniel for your reply,

If you have 2 folders, one nested, /dir1/dir2 and you issue an ls command in dir1. It won't show dir2 however you can cd into that directory directly.

The ganesha config is as follows:

###################################################

NFSV4
{
DomainName = lmco.com;
}

NFS_CORE_PARAM
{
NFS_Port = 2049;
MNT_Port = 20048;
Rquota_Port = 875;
NLM_Port = 32803;
NFS_Protocols = 3,4;
}

EXPORT_DEFAULTS
{
Access_Type = RW;
Manage_Gids = true;
Protocols = 3,4;
Transports = TCP;

}

EXPORT
{
# Export Id (mandatory, each EXPORT must have a unique Export_Id)
Export_Id = 4;

# Exported path (mandatory)
Path = /scratch;

# Pseudo Path (required for NFS v4)
Pseudo = /scratch;

# Required for access (default is None)
# Could use CLIENT blocks instead

# Exporting FSAL
FSAL {
Name = VFS;
}
}

Thank you

David

I'm not sure I'm understanding the problem here. Is it that you can
list a file but not see it's contents? Or is it that you cannot list a
file, but can still open the file if you use a full path to it? Is it
files, or directories, or both?

What version of Ganesha are you using? What FSAL are you using?
