Hi Leen...

Thanks for the quick answer. Here's were I'm at as of now:

I'm trying to change the UMASK to "0000". I'm doing this so that when  
this client accesses an NFS share, it keeps chmod 777 permissions on  
all files that it makes. I'm controlling access to NFS export via IP  
address, and I want all clients authorized to see the NFS export to  
be able to exchange data freely. That being said, will doing the /etc/ 
profile.local do the same thing?

All I changed in the profile file was the entry for umask, and I  
changed it to 0000.

I'll have to go back and look. I archived my "bad" Linux virtual hard  
drives, and I can restore them to take a look.

On a side note, I also noticed that these problems began to show up  
when I did the following while logged in as non-root:

sudo -s
ifdown eth0
ifup eth0

I was simply trying to force the virtual machine into reacquiring a  
new IP address. I did have to be logged in with root-level access in  
both scenarios. Is that perhaps the problem?

Thanks in advance, once again!
