[TriLUG] Add Another NFS Client to NFS Server

[William Sutton via TriLUG]

Do you want separate exports for separate clients, or do you want a single 
export for both clients?

If the former, then your proposal should work.

If the latter, your existing export config is fine (because you don't NEED 
to add a new export path every time you add a new client).
