Hi,

perhaps someone could answer my question, if FreeNas 8.0.2 can handle following screnario:
NAS(CIFS share) <-> (mount_smbfs)FreeNas(add NFS share) <-> (NFS mount)Unix machine

With other words, I want to use FreeNAS as a pass though instance for an external share.

Until now, I did following:

1.) Mount the CIFS share from the external NAS:
mkir /mnt/mynas1-share1
mount_smbfs -I mynas -W mydomain.com //user@maynas/share1 /mnt/mynas1-share1

2.) Create NFS in FreeNAS GUI (-> failed)
Try to adde a NFS using path: /mnt/mynas1-share1
Fails with error message: "The path must reside within a volume mount point"

Is there an possibility to create shares on devices, which don't reside on my FreeNAS machine?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Regards,
jackdaniel

PS: I'm using FreeNAS-8.0.2-RELEASE-amd64
