Sort of. Try using the "-alldirs" option in the second column of your /etc/exports file, this will allow you to mount subdirectories of an exported filesystem in a way that is probably what you want. Note that you should only export a filesystem once, not multiple times; doing so where there is an ancestral relationship between the paths will result in an error. Basicly, you should only export the top-level mount points as displayed from the "df" command. -- -Chuck
