Hello,

I=E2=80=99m new to freebsd an read the handbook a lot. Thank you , for =
this great work.=20

Yesterday I setup a nfs server and tried to export /home like it is =
mentioned in the documentation.=20

But after restarting the mountd service. It  reported an error in =
/etc/exports . I red several other blogs and finally I got it.=20

FreeBSD doesn=E2=80=99t allow to export symlinks . You have to export =
the real path which is /usr/home/ . After changing the entry , =
everything worked well !

I think the example on Chapter 28.3.1 /home -alldirs 10.0.0.2 10.0.0.3 =
10.0.0.4 should be changed, because it is not working anymore.

Please correct me if I=E2=80=99m wrong.


regards,=20
