It won't work :) 

The challenge is exporting two shares from the same folder.  Linux has a
"bind" command which will make this work, but from what I can see there
isn't an equivalent on OpenSolaris.  

This isn't a big deal though; I can make it work using CIFS.   It isn't
something that has to be NFS, but I thought I would ask to see if there was
a simple solution I was missing.

Unfortunately, there isn't anything I can do about the application, and it
really isn't a big deal.  There is a pretty straight forward workaround.


Have a great day!
