List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Hi, I have the following situation: "A" client of network "N" needs file = access to the "C" server of network "M", and there's "B" with 2 network = cards. The computers have RedHat 7.2 or 7.3 installed. B mounts Cshare on /Bshare/Cshare B's /etc/exports includes the following lines: /Bshare A(rw,async,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash) /Bshare/Cshare A(rw,nohide,async,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash) then=20 B:# exportfs -ra gives A.N:/Bshare/Cshare: Invalid argument Now I remember that one cannot "export a directory and an ancestor of = that directory on the same filesystem to any one host". Yes, = /Bshare/Cshare was created as a subdirectory, but wasn't it replaced = when mounting? And isn't the manual requires extra lines in /etc/exports = to "nohide" such mounts? Any hint, please.
