symlink to the actual mount point, change the export to match the mount =
and all should be well.

The extraneous =E2=80=99s=E2=80=99 was the issue, but there was no =
/mnt/backups folder or symlink. Error message is really misleading; =
=E2=80=9C/mnt/backups does not exist=E2=80=9D would be much better.
