Sep 2, 2022 at 14:10 comment added uli42 access.redhat.com/solutions/3951111 explains the umask/ACL relation over NFS. As this site is only visible after login, unfortunately, I describe the issue in own words: Seeing the umask influencing the resulting permissions despite an ACL telling otherwise is due to nfsv3 (and nfs4 < 4.2) not offering a way for the client to pass the requested mode and umask separately to the server. So the NFS client applies the umask locally and passes the result to the server which in turn applies the acl - leading to undesired results. The only way around this is to switch to NFSv4.2.
