When it starts happening, it is repeatable. But it doesn't always happen.
We have three boxen running 1.3.71 right now. All mount the same /home filesystem from a NetApps toaster.
On one of them (a 486/80, 64M ram, w/ usu 10M cached) I can never reproduce it.
On another (a P5-100, 64M, usu 15M to 20M cached) I can occasionally do it, though the errant directory will eventuall work; I presume it starts working after a cache timeout??
On the third (a P5-100, 64M, usu 1M cached) I've never seen it.
The errant directories do show up on other clients.
