More About Mount Points

Itʼs important to note that the ʻServerʼ entries donʼt all have to refer to different
physical servers. You can enter a single server multiple times, specifying different
sub-paths in the Mount Point field.
For example, if your directory structure looks like this -
this is the NFS share
You can specify the
mount point path to a
subfolder instead.
The mount point would typically be entered like this:
When viewed in the Mason Library, the corresponding Server entry would contain
the single folder named ʻDVDsʼ, and you would navigate into that folder to find
the additional folders.
But the Mason also accepts mount point paths that point to lower levels of the
shared item. You simply add the desired path to the end of the mount point path,
like this for example:
That would cause the Library to show only the contents of the folder ʻNewʼ. Any
items ʻoutsideʼ that folder in the hierarchy would not be accessible.
