[GRLUG] NFS and Symlinks

I've got a directory structure:
  - /opt/myapp-1.0/
     lib/
     bin/
     data/
  - /opt/myapp-1.1/
     lib/
     bin/
     data/
  - /opt/myapp-1.2/
     lib/
     bin/
     data/

Then I've got a symlink "/opt/myapp" which points to "/opt/myapp-1.2". However, inside of my /opt/myapp-1.2 directory I need to
mount some NFS data directories. To simplify things I tried to validate the path as "/opt/myapp/data/", however NFS complains
because it is using the full path "/opt/myapp-1.2/data/" and it doesn't have permissions to mount there.

Is there a way around this? If not I can going to move my supporting data/ directory outside of the whole /opt/myapp directory
tree. Thanks,

Zach
