The page isn't wrong, but doesn't include some information. I think it is important that you specify exports that come from the same filesystem on one line, conversely you can't specify exports from two different filesystems on one line. This is because of the way NFS keeps track of exports internally, or something. This may not be accurate, but it's something similar... I've seen the issue float by on the -current mailing list I believe. -- Jason Young ANET Technical Staff
