Hey all.  I just added a second drive to a box running
4.3RC I moved the ports directory to the new drive
edited /etc/fstab to reflect the addition and created
a symlink from the old location to the new, and
everyone seems ok with the change except nfs. This box
is the nfs server for my cabbage patch, and when I try
to mount the ports directory from the other boxes, I
get ==>  nfs: can't access /usr/ports: Permission
denied
The actual link is owned by root, and the new
directory where ports now live is owned by root.  What
am I overlooking..  I didn't see anything in mountd,
and nfs about symlinks.  What am I doing wrong?
Thanks
