which exported directories were being told about? On server side or client side?

In the Network File System (NFS) there are two types of filesystems:
1) A filesystem mounted local on the NFS server which is exported
and
2) A filesystem remote to the client system which is mounted across a local filesystem. Like this:
SystemA is the host and has filesystem /home/blog which is NFS exported.
SystemB has a local filesystem /home/blog and the remote filesystem /home/blog from SystemA is NFS mounted across it. The result is that only the files on SystemA /home/blog will be seen. Do not mix up the local filesystem /export with the NFS "Exported" filesystems they are two different things.
Hope this helps.
