NFS and mounted dir

[Jamesbch]

Hello,

I have some LVM volumes on my gentoo and would like to share one into an existing NFS share. I tried a mount --bind or a symbolic link but nothing worked. Through NFS I cannot see the files into the folder. Example :

/mnt/nfs-share/ : A folder shared through NFS without any probleme.
/mnt/documents/ : A folder with some files.
/mnt/nfs-share/documents/ : The "mount" point to access to /mnt/documents/.

How could I done this ?
Thank you in advance.

I believe the information you're looking for can be found in the exports(5) man page, specifically the unhide and crossmnt options. May be easier to just create a separate export for the other volume though, and mount it on the client as well.
