I don't know of a limitation (except maybe the maximum size of a UDP datagram), but as far as I am aware, it will only report entries in /etc/exports. Your email would suggest otherwise and since I'm not up to speed w.r.t. how ZFS's sharenfs command works, I can't help... You might want to try putting the exported file systems in /etc/exports instead. I'm also a bit surprized that automount cares what the mountd protocol thinks is exported but, again, I'm not up to speed on what automount actually does. Sorry I can't be of more help, rick
