Will this restore what I had originally,
mv /home/bobg/Public/nfs4exports/home /nfs4exports
or will it create an even longer file name?
No, since you moved the /nfs4exports directory, it is no longer there, so it would move
the contents of /home/bobg/Public/nfs4exports/home/ into a directory called /nfs4exports/.
So, if there was a /home/bobg/Public/nfs4exports/home/foo, it would now be
/nfs4exports/foo.
You could either ‘mkdir /nfs4exports’ first, or move /home/bobg/Public/nfs4exports
instead.
