Subject: knfsd and remotely mounted file-systems

Hi,

        I am trying to mount (on AIX) via NFS an NFS-exported directory on
a Linux machine. The complication is that this directory is actually a
remotely mounted filesystem, mounted via Samba from an NT server. The
mount command fails on AIX saying something unhelpful - its not permitted
or some such thing.

        The man page for user-space NFS says that there is a -r (or
--re-export) option to nfsd which would allow remotely mounted
file-systems to be exported. I presume, this is what I need.
Unfortunately, the Linux distribution installed is Redhat 6.0, and this
has knfsd - which doesnt seem to have (from a perusal of the source code)
the abovementioned option. I tried compiling the user-space nfsd on the
box, but the combination of libc6 and / or the 2.2.x kernel crashes the
compile. Are there any other options that I can try?

TIA,
Kenneth
