First of all: this is an issue I am having with Unraid as server - but I wanted to see if anyone using FreeNAS/TrueNAS has same experience. I guess it is similar NFS server that runs in background and that concepts are the same. I hope it is OK to ask for experiences from FreeNAS/TrueNAS regarding this topic - I guess it is a general issue.
I have a strange issue with server running NFS v4 shares.
Facts:
* Running a fresh install of Word on a fresh Mac
* Documents are on an NFS v4 network share
* The share and documents has all permissions: Read - Write - Execute (have not used any ACL)
* I can verify this by using "Get info" on a Word document and see that myselv, mygroup and all users has Read and Write. I can also verify directly on server. Documents are 777 (rwx for all)
* Ready only is not set on document
* Locked is not set on document
Symptoms:
* When I open a document located on the share in Word on the Mac - it displays a message that the document is read only and only gives me the option do duplicate it. I can duplicate it fine and save to the network location, but when opening the duplicated document, I get the read only message again.
* No other programs are behaving this way on the same share - Excel, Powerpoint etc works fine. I can even open a Word document in a text editor and are able to save it - so if it definitely not read only
* If I create a new Word document and saves it to this network share - I get the same behaviour - it gets read only
* If I map the network share using NFS v3 or Samba (SMB) protocol instead of NFS v4, it works fine - issue is only with NFS v4 (I prefer using NFS over SMB due to speed & reliability when there are many files)
So somehow Word thinks that documents on the network share are read only - while they definitely not are read only.
Any similar experiences with FreeNAS/TrueNAS or any ideas on what is the source of issue here?
