Yes, /etc/exports is what I have been using. You suggested it should
be subordinate to something, /home or /home/bobg perhaps. I can't
find that.
Your exports file is missing the filepath(s) you want to export. You
list the directories that you want to share out. And try simplifying
the options you have listed for the exports, until you know which ones
you really should add.
This is from one of my machines:
$ cat /etc/exports
/home *.example.com(rw,sync)
/var/www *.example.com(rw,sync)
e.g. [what] [where to] [how]
On that machine, it shares out its /home directory, and the /var/www
directory. It shares them out to other computers on the
example.com
network (fictional example), you can also use numerical IP addresses.
It allows read & write access. Sync is an option about how the writes
are done, it's supposedly the default, but you never know when a
program's default differs from Fedora's defaults.

You're just miffed that it wasn't you.
