Urrgh. This gets more ugly the closer I look.
I token change I did on the host got reverted.
Even after rebooting the SBC and restarting nfs server on the host I have two
different versions depending upon which end I view it from.
This is MESSY.
I knew nfs had some issues but this is actually unusable. This file refuses to
change.
I repeated an newline inserted into the file using nano on the host. This is
visible in the length and timestamp of the file. If I view the file from from
the SBC , I see the new date and length but if I open it with vi the break of
the newline is not there!
If I then save it :wq without even entering an edit mode the new line is gone
viewed from either end.
It gets worse!
I remove a hash to uncomment a line in vi. I save and view the file length.
It's one less, fine. I reopen with vi and the hash is back in. I've lost my
change. I repeat the edit , save and exit.
One less again! The file content is the same but it's getting smaller !!!
There is BAD BORK in the air. The directory entries are no long matching the
file contents.
