if you are talking about NFS, this is due to how ZFS file systems work.
When you share a ZFS filesystem via NFS it will share everything IN that
filesystem but if you have 2 filesystems, it will only share that second
fs's mount point.


what i mean is, if you have something like pool/filesystem
and pool/filesystem/filesystem2
and you share pool/filesystem via NFS it will only share what is actually in
that filesystem....so you will need to also share the second filesystem as
well.
