+By default, if a server exports two filesystems, one of which is mounted as a
+child of the other, NFS Version 2 and Version 3 clients must mount both
+filesystems explicitly in order to access them. If a client only mounts
+the parent, it will see an empty directory at the location where the other
+filesystem is mounted.
+
+Setting the \fBnohide\fR option on a filesystem causes it to no longer be
+hidden in this manner, and a client will be able to move from the parent
+filesystem to this one without noticing the change. However, some NFS clients
+or applications may not function correctly when this option is used. In
+particular, files on different underlying filesystems may appear to have the
+same inode numbers.
+
+This option is equivalent to the option of the same name provided in \fBLinux
+NFS\fR, and only applies to NFS Version 2 and Version 3 requests.
