Ahh. You need to add the 'crossmnt' directive to the servers /etc/ exports file for the whatever it is you are mounting
  Then it will work the way you want it to

Right, because he is trying to export the parent directory. I export the mount points directly.
        crossmnt
               This option is similar to nohide but  it
               makes  it possible for clients to access
               all filesystems mounted on a  filesystem
               marked with crossmnt.  Thus when a child
               filesystem "B" is mounted  on  a  parent
               "A", setting crossmnt on "A" has a simi-
               lar effect to setting "nohide" on B.
               With nohide the child  filesystem  needs
               to   be   explicitly   exported.    With
               crossmnt it need not.  If a child  of  a
               crossmnt  file  is  not  explicitly  ex-
               ported, then it will be  implicitly  ex-
               ported  with  the same export options as
               the  parent,  except  for  fsid=.   This
               makes  it  impossible  to  not  export a
               child of a crossmnt filesystem.  If some
               but not all subordinate filesystems of a
               parent are to  be  exported,  then  they
               must be explicitly exported and the par-
               ent should not have crossmnt set.
               The nocrossmnt option can explictly dis-
               able  crossmnt if it was previously set.
               This is rarely useful.
