Thank you for the suggestions and sorry for the late reply.
I'll try the templates module. As for the mount module, as far as I
understant it's to configure /etc/fstab on the client side. I'm trying to
configure the server side, i.e. /etc/exports. Anyway, I'll definetly use
the mount module on the clients.
Back to the parentheses problem, the version of Ansible I'm using is 1.7
from the Fedora repositories.
