[nflug] rpc.mountd: getfh failed: Operation not permitted

[Justin Bennett]

Thanks for the reply.

yeah It shows in exportfs. The error is  on the server 
(/var/log/message) on the client I get a Permission Denied.

I've been doing a /etc/rc.d/init.d/nfs reload

will a exportfs -r interrupt any currently mounted shares?

This partition has 4 directories under it that I also share (used by 
automounter on my samba server). I'm not sure if this is causing me 
greif, but I have several other structured exporting like that with no 
issues.
