- Microsoft Windows NT Services for UNIX Add-On Pack
- Microsoft Windows NT Server version 4.0
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
If you share multiple folders on a single NTFS partition as NFS mounts, they may
all be mounted by the Windows NT NFS client as a single drive mapping. This is
not a feature; mapping to multiple NFS shares in this manner can cause
unpredictable results.
CAUSE
=====
This is a side effect of the parent/child limitation on NFS shares as
implemented in the Services for UNIX NFS server.
RESOLUTION
==========
Do not mount an NFS share without specifying the full share name or without
specifying the full alias name.
MORE INFORMATION
================
You cannot export a parent folder of an exported file system unless the parent
is on a different physical device.
