I have a FreeBSD box configured as a nfs server and a Mac with MacOS
10.5 as client.
On my FBSD box I have a zfs pool exported as you can seen in the
examples bellow. This filesystem is mounted on my Mac with the
following command "mount_nfs -P ..." When I copy some files from the
shell prompt everything works as expected. But when I use the Finder
and drop files into this mounted directory I got the following errors:
First message:
You may need to enter the name and password for an administrator on
this computer to change the item named "xxx.html"
Second message:
The item "xxx.html" contains on or more items you do not have
permission to read. Do you want to copy the items you are allowed to
read?
Third message:
The operation cannot ve copleted because you do not have sufficient
privileges for some of the items.
An empty file is created on the destination directory as shown bellow.
509:0-> ls -ltr /mnt2
total 265

When I do the exact same operations on /export which is an UFS file
system everything works as expected. I have to permissions errors.
I am sorry for asking this long question on this group. Maybe the
problem is Mac related, but since this happen only with zfs on a
FreeBSD box, and a lot of people in this list use Macs, I thought you
may have an answer to that problem.
Here is somt information about FreeBSD Box:
