Post subject:  NFS how to follow symlinks

I am exporting my /myth folder as an nfs share so my sbe can access it.

My /myth/video and /myth/music folders on the mbe have symlinks in them to my usb disk; /media/sda1/myth/music(video). On the mbe this works fine myth see's all the videos. My sbe will not follow the symlinks. I could move all the videos/musicc to the usb drive if that is the only way but would prefer to have the symlink setup. If I have to move everything to the usb drive would I just add this to my exports

/media/sda1/myth/music(video) *(rw)

***edit****
Okay the above did not seem to work when I try to mount it on the sbe and get an error no such directory. help :)

***end edit***

Then add something like this to the sbe fstab

mbe://media/sda1/myth/music(video) /myth/music(video) nfs rsize=8192,wsize8192,hard,intr,nfsvers=3

Or is there a way to have the sbe follow the symlinks?

Thanks

Craig
