smb mount -> nfs export


I have successfully mounted a smb share (linksys nas) on a SUSE 9.1 node & I am attempting to export that mount (in rw) for a couple solaris boxes.

Is this possible?

I cannot mount the share from the solaris boxes nor can I write any wiles via automount (/net/machinename/share)

thx 4 any help

NFS can only export resources that are physically on that machine. This is both a security aspect and a protection against 'sharing loops' and endless directory tree structures.

NFS should be able to export all mounted partitions local to the NFS server. Access is handled by the NFS server so the clients do not have any info on the underlying filesystem or setup.
