[Repost.  First posting last week seems to have gotten lost.]

The CFS Installation and Operation manual implies support in Release
1.4 for multiple users of the same CFS directories.  Can these users
enjoy ordinary permissions-based protection against one another?

No configuration that I've tried permits read-only access by one user
to files or directories owned by another; they either deny any access
at all, or permit full write access.

Particulars:

   CFS Release 1.4.0beta
   NFS: Debian Linux package nfs-user-server version 2.2beta47-12
   Debian Linux, kernel 2.4.18-386
   Hardware: Generic Intel 486 box

Thanks in advance for any light that you can shed on this.
