Hmm. I don't actually have a / mount in /etc/exports (and haven't had one since I finished building this machine, last year), and looking at /proc/fs/nfs/exports on the server now, it's not there. The 'v4root' makes me wonder if this was automatically synthesised? Exports explicitly named in /etc/exports for that machine are: /home/.loom.srvr.nix -rw,no_subtree_check,sync fold.srvr.nix(root_squash) mutilate(no_root_squash) silk(no_root_squash) /.nfs/nix/Graphics/Private -no_root_squash,sync,no_subtree_check mutilate(rw) silk(rw) /.nfs/nix/share/phones -root_squash,async,no_subtree_check fold.srvr.nix(rw) mutilate(rw) silk(rw) /.nfs/nix/.cache -root_squash,async,no_subtree_check fold.srvr.nix(rw) mutilate(rw) silk(rw) /.nfs/nix/Mail/nnmh -root_squash,async,no_subtree_check fold.srvr.nix(ro) mutilate(rw) silk(rw) /.nfs/compiler/.ccache -root_squash,async,no_subtree_check mutilate(rw) silk(rw) /.nfs/compiler/.cache -root_squash,async,no_subtree_check fold.srvr.nix(rw) mutilate(rw) silk(rw) /usr/doc -root_squash,no_subtree_check,async mutilate(ro) silk(ro) /usr/info -root_squash,no_subtree_check,async mutilate(ro) silk(ro) /usr/share/texlive -no_root_squash,no_subtree_check,async mutilate(rw) silk(rw) /usr/share/xemacs -no_root_squash,no_subtree_check,async mutilate(rw) silk(rw) /usr/share/xplanet -root_squash,no_subtree_check,async mutilate(ro) silk(ro) /usr/share/nethack -root_squash,no_subtree_check,async mutilate(rw) silk(rw) /pkg/non-free -no_root_squash,no_subtree_check,async mutilate(rw) chronix.wkstn.nix(rw) silk(rw) /usr/lib/X11/fonts -root_squash,no_subtree_check,async mutilate(ro) silk(ro) /usr/share/wine -root_squash,no_subtree_check,async mutilate(rw) silk(rw) /usr/share/clamav -root_squash,no_subtree_check,async mutilate(ro) silk(ro) /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp -no_root_squash,no_subtree_check,async mutilate(rw) silk(rw) /usr/archive -root_squash,async,subtree_check mutilate(rw,root_squash,insecure) cinema.srvr.nix(ro,root_squash,insecure) chronix.wkstn.nix(ro) silk(rw,root_squash,insecure) /usr/archive/music/Pete -root_squash,async,subtree_check mutilate(rw,root_squash,insecure) cinema.srvr.nix(ro,root_squash,insecure) chronix.wkstn.nix(ro) silk(rw,root_squash,insecure) /var/log.real -root_squash,no_subtree_check,async mutilate(ro) silk(ro) /etc/shai-hulud -no_root_squash,no_subtree_check,async mutilate(rw) silk(rw) /usr/src -no_root_squash,no_subtree_check,async mutilate(rw) oracle.vm.nix(rw) 192.168.20.0/24(ro) scratch.vm.nix(rw) ubuntu.vm.nix(rw) cinema.srvr.nix(rw,root_squash) chronix.wkstn.nix(rw,root_squash) silk(rw) /var/cache/CPAN -no_root_squash,no_subtree_check,async mutilate(rw) silk(rw) /usr/share/flightgear -root_squash,async,no_subtree_check mutilate(ro) silk(ro) /usr/local/tmp/encoding/mkv -no_subtree_check,root_squash,ro mutilate.wkstn.nix silk.wkstn.nix /pkg/non-free/steam -rw,subtree_check,root_squash mutilate.wkstn.nix loom.srvr.nix chronix.wkstn.nix silk.wkstn.nix(insecure) /.transient/workstations/silk -no_root_squash,async,subtree_check silk(rw) /trees/mirrors/mutilate silk.wkstn.nix(no_root_squash,async,no_subtree_check,rw) /trees/mirrors/silk silk.wkstn.nix(no_root_squash,async,no_subtree_check,rw) ... and, well, it's a bit of a mess and there are a lot of them, but there are no nested mounts there, at least, not outside /usr/archive which is probably not relevant for this. (The /.nfs stuff is particularly ugly: if I try to export e.g. /home/nix/.cache rather than /.nfs/nix/.cache the export simply never appears: /.nfs/$foo is just built out of bind mounts for this purpose, but then /home/$name is also a bind mount from /home/.loom.srvr.nix/$name on this network in any case. /nfs/$foo is usually bind-mounted *back* under /home on the client, too, but still from NFS's perspective I guess this means they are distinct? I hope so...)
