Actually, there is a slight glitch with using wildcards (and possibly others, though I haven't tried them), since the way it is implemented is that mountd adds explicit exports for any host which mounts something matching a wildcard export. If you reinitialize the export list (eg kexportfs -ua; kexportfs -a) any client that had mounted something exported with a wildcard will have to remount it. I have also seen this on reboots of the server (though not consistently, so I suspect it has to xtab surviving or not).
