We've run into an interesting issue in our environment:
If user joe1 has an executable that is NFS mounted, owned by him and permissions are set such:
--x--x--x a.out
he can't run it:
./a.out: Permission denied.
if he moves it to the local machine, say /tmp, it works fine with the same permissions.
joe can execute the file if he changes the permissions to r-x--x--x
this behavior seems to exist on the 11.04 clients, but not the 10.04 clients.
