Whoops, sorry, wasn't paying attention.

So, yes, if you look at the "Remote Procedure Call"->"Credentials" on
the next-to-last packet (#25), you'll see that it's sending the CREATE
with AUTH_NULL credentials field.

So the create's going to be done with nfsnobody credentials, and won't
succeed unless it's in a world-writeable directory.

The mount reply (packet #10) is listing the flavors as: AUTH_NULL,
AUTH_UNIX, RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5, RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5I, RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5P in that
order.  The client may just be choosing the first?

I seem to recall a couple bugs in this area that were fixed recently,
but can't find those now.

--b.
