Your /etc/exports syntax is seriously wacked. I _think_ you are trying
to say,

/usr/local/src -alldirs -mapall=0: 192.168.0.2
/usr/local/obj -alldirs -mapall=0: 192.168.0.2

BUT! A few caveats here:

1) You are mapping _all_ users to root on these mounts. Anyone on
192.168.0.2 (or anyone who can make the NFS server think their machine
is 192.168.0.2) can do _anything_ to the files on the mount.

2) Are /usr/local/src and /usr/local/obj really on separate file
systems? In the default install, they would both be on /usr. In this
case, you would do,

/usr -alldirs -mapall=0: 192.168.0.2

And take care of both in one swoop. However, you are exporting any
other directories in /usr, but this is unavoidable with the -alldirs
flag. If you just want to be able to mount at src or obj (and if I can
guess at why you are doing this, I think that would be perfectly
fine), you could do,

/usr/local/src /usr/local/obj -mapall=0: 192.168.0.2

HTH.
