AFP server doesn't cross file system boundaries

On my SL server, I have a volume mounted at a custom location (instead of in /Volumes) and I'm trying share a folder to the root of this mount location over AFP. In other words, something like this:


/foo/share (share point in server manager)

/foo/share/bar/mountpoint (mount point, as defined /etc/fstab)


AFP clients can NOT see the mount point via the file share.


But Windows/Samba/SMB clients can see the mount point.


Is there a way to configure the AFP server so that AFP clients can see the mount point? i.e. cross the file system boundary


I scoured the AppleFileServer plist in /Library/Preferences and couldn't find anything useful.


Any tips welcome. Thanks!

Xserve, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
