correct symbolic usage for nfs
#1
i have automounts of the hard drives setup (example) like this /mnt/HDD-1, /mnt/HDD-2 etc.
so the paths to movies are /mnt/HDD-1/Movies-1/Title/file.mkv

i have symbolic in /media/Movies/Movies-1 to /mnt/HDD-1/Movies-1

i have my nfs export as /media/Movies/Movies-1 192.168.1.0/24(rw,no_root_squash,insecure)

is this a correct setup?
i am wondering if i can just setup /media/Movies/Movies 192.168.1.0/24(rw,no_root_squash,insecure) as an export alone so that all Movies-* symbolic links are shared in the nfs. will that work too? 

setup on kodi sources as nfs://server.lan/media/Movies-1 etc. 

if i do something like that above, my videos in the sql are not found. im not sure if its the paths of the sql database or if the symbolic links have to be direct. if someone who knows more about linux i would really appreciate assistance in setting it up!

No need for symbolic links, when the NFS server is set up correctly.

I have something similar set up in Ubuntu:
/media/disks/MOVIES1 192.168.1.0/24(rw,nohide,insecure,no_subtree_check,async,all_squash)

The video source in Kodi is:
nfs://192.168.1.1/media/disks/MOVIES1
