If you add a trivial mountpoint there with:

	"mount --bind /srv/data/software /srv/data/software"

I think that will do the job.

Note this isn't really secure--this will prevent users on 192.168.0.1
from accidentally modifying software/, but won't do anything against
someone malicious with access to the network.
