I had a similar problem, and eventually puzzled my way through it.

Seems like you can only have one line in exports that references a 
particular station.

In other words you can't do:

/mydisk/area1 -options tom
/mydisk/area2 -options tom

You can do something like:
/mydisk/area1 /mydisk/area2 -options tom

(I am absolutely not an expert on this stuff, but that is what I 
remember.) Email me at Robert.clark@pii.com if you need more help.
