does NFS with nohide option work?

[Randall J. Parr]

I am trying to use NFS to transfer data between a RH 7.3 (s7) and an RH 8.0 (s8) system.

I have tried the following on both system (ie coming from both directions).
[only the names have been changed to proected the innocent]

/etc/exports:
-------------------------
/ [servername](rw,sync,no_root_squash,nohide)

/etc/fstab
-------------------------
servername:/ /servername nfs noauto,noac,intr,timeo=15


I can then mount /servername just fine BUT the nohide option does not seem to work.
That is, I can see everything on servername:/ filesystem
but only see servername:/data as a blank directory
(on servername /data is the mount point for the /data disk/filesystem)

Can anyone verify for me if the nohide option is supported and working in RH 7.3 and/or RH 8.0?

If the nohide option does work, can anyone point out what I'm doing wrong here?

Thanks
