I have been having a problem with mountd and subdirectories. I'm not
sure if this is a bug or just a problem on my maching.

System - 80386 PC running patchlevel 0.2.4 of 386bsd


Problem: mountd refuses mounts of subdirectories of directories in
the export file.


Example: 

directories /foo and /foo/bar exist. 
/foo is in /etc/exports for everyone with rwx permissions for all.

mounting from pcnfs: 
/foo will mount, but /foo/bar fails
if I  add /foo/bar to the exports file, it mounts.

Any Suggestions?
