Subject: NFS mount permission failure

Can i export a NFS mountpoint in turn as a NFS filesystem in /etc/exports?
When i try to mount that filesystem on a remote client, i get permission
denied. Is there a workaround for this?

Thx,
Murali

You can't re-export an NFS mounted file system.

The workaround, otherwise known as solution, is to mount the file system
from the server, not from another NFS client.
