--- Comment #2 from Rick Macklem <rmacklem at FreeBSD.org> ---
The -alldirs flag allows all directories within the file system
to be mounted. If the directory specified in the path isn't the
root of the file system, then that will include directory paths
above the directory. Note that "showmount" uses the Mount protocol
and there is no way to express "-alldirs" for it, so showmount can
only show the path in the /etc/exports line.

Here is the snippet from "man exports":
     The second    is to specify the pathname of the root of the file system
fol-
     lowed by the -alldir flag; this form allows the host(s) to mount at any
     point within the file system, including regular files if the -r option is
     used on mountd(8).

Although the man pages says "root of the file system", mountd does not enforce
this.

I am assuming that /home/ngie is the same file system as /home/ngie/XXX.

Please close this bug unless you still feel that mountd is not providing
the semantics expressed in "man exports" above.
