http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/network-nfs.htmlThe handbook specifies "The -alldirs flag allows the subdirectories to
be mount points. In other words, it will not mount the subdirectories
but permit the client to mount only the directories that are required or
needed."
While this is true, it is not noted in the handbook that it will also
allow directories BELOW that directory to be mountable so long as it is
part of the same file system. As stated in the man pages:
"the -alldirs flag; this form allows the host(s) to
mount at any point within the file system, including regular files
if the
-r option is used on mountd(8)."
So for example if my /etc/exports looks like:
/home/randy -alldirs 10.0.0.2 10.0.0.3 10.0.0.4
Not only will I be able to mount /home/randy/Desktop but I will also
be able to mount /home/boris as well (if /home/randy and /home/boris are
on the same file system).
--randy
