I'm having the same problem here.

I use the latest version (3.2.3 build on Aug 23 2011 19:54:51 of the download site) on a Centos 5.6 as a gluster servers, Debian squeeze (same version) as client.
I'm refused access to files and directories despite having correct group permissions.

So I installed a clean Centos client (also latest version) for a test and everything is working perfectly .... ?

The used Debian (squeeze) and Centos are 64 bits (repository from gluster.com).
Using Debian testing (64 and 32 bits) and gluster from the Debian repository also denies me access in 64 and 32 bits version.

I assume the mixed environment explains why this bug is rare. 

The used gluster installation is a basic replicated setup one with two servers like described in the de Gluster docs.
