This is almost solved.
Test case:
[root@mail asdasd]# for i in `id jpyeron | perl -pe 's/,/\n/g'| perl -ne 'm/((.+?))/g and print $1,"\n"'`; do mkdir -m 750 $i && chgrp $i $i; done [root@mail asdasd]# su jpyeron [jpyeron@mail asdasd]$ for i in *; do pushd $i; popd 2> /dev/null > /dev/null; done /home/asdasd/aepi /home/asdasd bash: pushd: ai: Permission denied /home/asdasd/apache /home/asdasd /home/asdasd/assistantchef /home/asdasd /home/asdasd/burtshare /home/asdasd bash: pushd: busdev: Permission denied /home/asdasd/c600312 /home/asdasd /home/asdasd/chinalane /home/asdasd /home/asdasd/cvs /home/asdasd /home/asdasd/dadweb /home/asdasd /home/asdasd/dante /home/asdasd /home/asdasd/ftp /home/asdasd bash: pushd: graffitiweb: Permission denied bash: pushd: inventory: Permission denied bash: pushd: jobs: Permission denied /home/asdasd/jpyeron /home/asdasd /home/asdasd/kingspizza /home/asdasd /home/asdasd/kingspizza2 /home/asdasd /home/asdasd/mkruger /home/asdasd bash: pushd: pdinc: Permission denied bash: pushd: projrejistor: Permission denied bash: pushd: rejistor: Permission denied /home/asdasd/share /home/asdasd bash: pushd: smime: Permission denied /home/asdasd/swindellweb /home/asdasd bash: pushd: upcup: Permission denied bash: pushd: urbana: Permission denied bash: pushd: vongartenstadt: Permission denied bash: pushd: votetech: Permission denied [jpyeron@mail asdasd]$ id uid=500(jpyeron) gid=500(jpyeron) groups=500(jpyeron),48(apache),50(ftp),400(cvs),507(mkruger),531(assistantch e f),533(chinalane),537(c600312),539(dadweb),522(kingspizza),544(kingspizza2), 546(swindellweb),558(share),561(aep i),563(burtshare),568(dante),582(busdev),570(smime),574(urbana),578(ai),592( inventory),595(upcup),602(projrejis tor),603(votetech),604(rejistor),609(vongartenstadt),611(graffitiweb),617(pd inc),56736(jobs)
busdev is the 17th group.

But if we try on a non nfs mounted dir like /tmp all is fine either way.
[jpyeron@mail sadfsdaf]$ for i in *; do pushd $i; popd 2> /dev/null > /dev/null; done /tmp/sadfsdaf/aepi /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/ai /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/apache /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/assistantchef /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/burtshare /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/busdev /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/c600312 /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/chinalane /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/cvs /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/dadweb /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/dante /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/ftp /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/graffitiweb /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/inventory /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/jobs /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/jpyeron /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/kingspizza /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/kingspizza2 /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/mkruger /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/pdinc /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/projrejistor /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/rejistor /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/share /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/smime /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/swindellweb /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/upcup /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/urbana /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/vongartenstadt /tmp/sadfsdaf /tmp/sadfsdaf/votetech /tmp/sadfsdaf
