Could it be that chown is trying to do the user name to user number conversion on the local system but the target user does not exist there? Cheers ... Duncan. On Thu, Feb 13, 2014 at 07:29:06PM +1100, Russell Coker wrote:

I have the above in /etc/exports, root on the NFS client can't run chown, it gets EINVAL. Both client and server are running Debian/Wheezy but the server has kernel 3.11 from Debian/Unstable (for BTRFS).
I don't think it's a BTRFS issue as I have another BTRFS NFS server that works well.
Any suggestions as to what I should investigate? Please include the "obvious" things as I probably missed something that's supposed to be obvious.
