On both our new filers, running 6.1.2R1, I have just noticed that the ownership of its "/vol/vol0/etc" belongs, not to the expected "root", but to an apparently arbitrary uid "20041" (gid "30").
David,
Of my 9 local filers running 6.1.2R1, all of them have /etc owned by root. I'm not running Secure Filerview. These were all upgraded from 5.3.7R3 in the past 2 months.
