Can't access exported directories

I think I am missing something in this install.
I have a couple of directories exported via nfs.
I cannot mount the exported directories, even from the machine itself.
When I try, it hangs awhile then reports "mount.nfs: Connection timed out"
--------------------------
[root@testlaptop ~]# exportfs -v
/home/media/flac
<world>(ro,wdelay,insecure,root_squash,no_subtree_ check)
/home/media/mp3
<world>(ro,wdelay,insecure,root_squash,no_subtree_ check)

--------------------------
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Aug 17 08:47 media

[root@testlaptop ~]# ls -lR /home/media
/home/media:
total 8

Thumbs up Re: Can't access exported directories

Upon advice from another Linux group, I tried:
$ showmount -e 192.168.1.12
clnt_create: RPC: Program not registered

Googled the message and found out the problem was the nfs service wasn't started.
Not sure why, or why it still let me export the shares.

systemctl status nfs-server.service reported it was dead.

So I issued the following:
systemctl enable nfs-server.service
systemctl start nfs-server.service

I was unable to mount one of my exports, a fuse filesystem, until I found that it required an fsid so I added the following option to my /etc/exports (...,fsid=10815).
