I hate to say it but read the mn page for mountd...  you will notice that
you can only have ONE line that modifies a file system for a host...
i.e..  to fix about have your /etc/exports like:
/usr/home /usr/local/bin /usr/local/etc /usr/local/sbin -maproot=0 ai

basicly...  I usually recommend using just one line per host... unless you
want the permissions for all hosts...  also note...  say you have
something like this:

/usr/home systema
/usr/anon/ftp

this will export ONLY /usr/home to systema, but to everyone else can
access /usr/anon/ftp...  this is a limitation of mountd/nfs (I'm not sure
exactly were the limitation is)...

hope this helps...
