Server = NFS-Server = Host which shares the files
Client = NFS-Client = Host from which you want to mount the server-shares

The changes to "/etc/exports", "hosts.allow", "hosts.deny" (my first email)
belongs to the host which is the server. Nothing to do on the clients within
my first email. The first E-Mail was only meant for manually setting up a
share instead of using "shares-admin".

BTW: To answer a question within your first reply:
>>> My server is 192.169.0.1 not sure if I should allow that
>>> or not?
If you think your server is secure you don't need the "EXCEPT" statement for
this one. I only make the exception of "10.0.1.1" because this is my router
to the inet.
