Another weird reason given by the client

Code:
mkdir /nfssharepoint
[root@localhost /]# mount -t nfs 192.168.20.194:/home/tom/share /nfssharepoint
mount.nfs: mount point /nfssharepoint is not a directory
[root@localhost /]#

STOREBACKUPMOUNT(1)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				       STOREBACKUPMOUNT(1)

NAME
storeBackupMount.pl - runs storeBackup backing up to an nfs mount SYNOPSIS
storeBackupMount.pl -c configFile [-s server] [-l logFile] [-d] [-p pathToStoreBackup] [-k killTime] [-m] mountPoints... DESCRIPTION
This script does the following: - checks an nfs server with ping - mounts that server via a list of mount points - starts storeBackup (with a config file) - umounts that server OPTIONS
--server, -s name or ip address of the nfs server default is localhost --configFile, -c configuration file for storeBackup. if option 'logFile' is set in the configration file, that log file is read online, if it is different from -l --logFile, -l logFile for this process. default is STDOUT. you can log into the same logfile as storeBackup --debug, -d generate some debug messages --pathStbu, -p path to storeBackup.pl --killTime -k time until storeBackup.pl will be killed. default is 365 days. the time range has to be specified in format 'dhms', e.g. 10d4h means 10 days and 4 hours --keepExistingMounts, -m if a mount already exists, do not umount after running storeBackup mountPoints List of mount points needed to perform the backup. This must be a list of paths which have to be defined in /etc/fstab. - if you add 'ro,' or 'rw,' to the beginning of a mount point, you can overwrite that option set in /etc/fstab example: ro,/filesSystemToRead will mount /fileSystemToRead read only, even if the corresponding entry in /etc/fstab mounts it read write only root is allowed to use this feature! EXIT STATUS
0 -> everything is ok 1 -> error from storeBackup 2 -> error from storeBackupMount 3 -> error from both programs COPYRIGHT
