Hi All,

I have a strange permissions issue. I moved a directory on my Samba server this 
morning, and now no one can access it. here is the layout:

Metatron is the samba server which NFS mounts fuji.

On metatron, I did:

rsync -av  /shared/Engineering/ /Engineering

Both /shared/Engineering and /Engineering are nfs mounted from fuji. I created 
the new share in smb.conf, but mo one can access any of the directories under 
Engineering. When I look at the permissions on metatron, everything looks 
normal, except that there is a "+" at the end of the perms section:

However, when I look at the permissions on fuji, there is no "+" sign. I tried 
to do a chmod 777 on one of the directories, but that didn't change anything. 
Does anyone have any idea what this "+" means, what it is for, and how to get 
rid of it??

Thanks,
Kenny
