hello !

it seems that accessing a file via knfsd exported filesystem doesn`t create an appropriate event with inotify-tools, i.e. i cannot "see" that this file has been accessed. no problems if acess that file on the same machine via userspace - but accessing from a remote box via nfs just fails.

can somebody confirm this issue?

is this by design or is this a bug?

regards
roland

What do you mean by "accessing"--is it just reads that are missed? Writes as well? Other kinds of modications of the filesystem?
