I created /etc/exports containing only the following line:

/media/iso      *(ro)

Then I get:

exportfs

/media/iso      <world>


Which looks hopeful but the error message keeps coming up,

"That directory could not be mounted from
the server."

I did service nfs restart  after making changes ...

I'm still missing something?
