NFS share - wrong file listing
 

Hi,

I have the following strange problem on one of my redhat clients.

It is mounting an nfs share from a server. When I do a ls -l on the mounted directory - I get a wrong (old) file listing.

Mounting the same nfs share on other clients works fine.

I already unmounted, restarted nfs, re-mounted - no change, still a wrong file listing. Looks like it is cached somewhere.

Does anyone have any ideas? I appreciate your help.

Update: On the client that has this problem I created a file on the mounted share. I can see the new file in the listing on the client, but not on the server where this share is mounted from or other clients.
