Stale NFS file handle

Update, I am able to mount a filesystem if it is in the cygwin root ie: 
/nfstest but if it's a directory in another place ie: /cygdrive/e/mnt/test 
it doesn't work and is now responding with

mount: <machinename>:/cygdrive/e/mnt/test failed, reason given by server: No 
such file or directory

Here's what mountd.log says.  Odd that the completed line just has /cygdrive
mountd[5052] 05/16/105 16:28 mountd.c 36 : NFS mount request received 
(/cygdrive/e/mnt/test, from 172.31.12.214)
mountd[5052] 05/16/105 16:28 mountd.c 36 : NFS mount request completed 
(/cygdrive, from 172.31.12.214)
