Hi Gregory, Yes, now I remember. It's not an export issue but a local root issue. The oss, as well as the rest of the system, can only apply a single local root (by definition there can only be a single root). The way to get around this problem is to: a) Determine what local root you wish to use (e.g., /x/y). b) Create a directory in "/" of /x/y c) Symlink all the directories from this directory using "root" names of your choosing. Users would then specify the path less "/x/y" and would be directed to the appropriate filesystem via the symlink. Does this make sense? Will it work in your setup?
