Hello,

There is an issue with my exported home folder. It has a subdirectory under which an msdosfs pen drive is mounted. The home folder gets exported nicely however the msdos subdirectory is not!

Any idea how this could be solved?

Some useful extracts:

babapc# mount

babapc# ls /root/x/usb_flash_drive/

-> Nothing!!!

babapc# ls /usr/home/sbremal/usb_flash_drive/

Any help would be much appreciated.

(Would "freebsd-fs" be more appropriate to ask the question on?)

Cheers,
