So let's assume it's the nfs server. Can you please tell me what's the
file system on your nfs server and how you export it?

A possible problem is, that with nfs symbolic links are not followed by
default.

My problem might be that I use a FreeBSD based nfs server.

Maybe with something like ext3, ext4 it might work.

Also do you use dylan-9.0.1 or something more recent?
