If bob did the exportfs -r prior to mounting /home/whatever that is to

what was later mounted.

He needs to umount the nfs clients, and run exportfs -r on the server
and remount on the clients.   And make sure that if the directory
fails to mount on a reboot then the exportfs -r will need to be rerun.

The showmount -e will not show if it is the dir on / or the dir on the mount.

I tried this several times and ways and finally rebooted the computer and ssh in to the server to do the exportfs -r. However as soon as the computer is booted I found /media /nfs was mounted. I unmounted that, checked to verify the umount was effective and then did the "exportfs -r" command on the nfs server. I also did showmount -e:

[root@nfs bobg]# showmount -e
Export list for nfs:
/nfs4exports/home 192.168.50.0/24

I also did:

[root@nfs bobg]# ll /

My data to be stored is bsing put in /nfs4exports/home/ which is different than /home, 
but they are all under root. Is "/home" on the 3.4 TB partition or is it still 
in the 69GB root partition? How do I know? Am I exporting the wrong file?
gparted shows:
/dev/sda2    ext4 /boot   1.00 GiB   ...etc...
/dev/sda3    lvm2 pv fedora_localhost...  3.64 TiB

The more I look at this the more confused I get.     Bob

I see a typo in the “comment=systemd.automout”.

Also, earlier mail makes me think it’s not actually mounted.  What does “mount 
-a” return?

Does /media/nfs exist?  Once you get the fstab fixed, test to see if it 
automounts.

FWIW, I believe the preferred current option is now

x-systemd.automount

And if desired

x-systemd.idle-timeout=
x-systemd.mount-timeout=

See, man systemd.mount
