My understanding is that the original plan was to have all the storage served up from a MS server but that was scrapped due to all the problems encountered and lack of support. We currently avoid creating subdirectories on the MS NFS served shares whenever possible. My recommendation is to avoid this product if at all possible. Sorry.

User apache mapped to user administrator. User root mapped to admin user. * Other directories, sub directories and files exist on the NFS server under "reports" When browsing http:server1.domain.com/, I am able to see the directories and files listed under /opt/mnt. When browsing http:server1.domain.com/reports/, I am UNABLE to see any existing files or directories in the list, except for "parent directory" When browsing http:server1.domain.com/reports/subdir1/, I am able to see the list of files and directories. If I unmount the NFS mount and create files & dirs under /opt/mnt/reports, I am able to view these via http. # Problem: I am unable to view (via web) the contents of the first directory mounted via NFS # The configuration works well if I use another version of Linux. I tested this on ver8.0 and 7.3. Has anyone out there experienced with problem before? You help will be greatly apprciated!
