[Dirk Zimoch <dirk.zimoch@psi.ch>]

Hello Jilei,

I guess it has to do the the user rights. The file system itself is RW,
otherwise you would not have been able to create the file. But I do not
know what the access rights of the directory are and if the Windows NFS
server handles them correctly.

I did some tests with a Linux NFS server and different settings of
access right.

This was my test:
I created a file "src" on the server:
echo XXX > src
On vxWorks I tried to copy the file:
copy < src > dest
I tried different access rights on the server like:
chmod 777 .

Whenever I was able to create a file, I was able to write to it, too. I
had never the situation that I can only create empty files.

Try to give the directory the accress rights mask 777. (No idea how to
do this on Windows.)
