NFS Puzzle

I have mounted some iso images using loopback, then exported those mounts to 
nfs.  Trouble is, I can't see any contents. 
 
Entry in /etc/fstab: 
 
/usr/images/Mandrake91-cd1-inst.i586.iso /mnt/iso/mdk91.1 iso9660  
ro,loop,auto,unhide 
 
Entries in /etc/exports: 
 
/mnt/iso *(ro,insecure,nohide,all_squash) 
/usr/share *(ro,insecure,nohide,all_squash) 
 
# ls -l /usr/images 
-rwxrwxrwx    1 root     root     682164224 Apr  4 10:59  
Mandrake91-cd1-inst.i586.iso 
 
# ls -l /mnt/iso/ 
dr-xr-xr-x    9 root     root         4096 Mar 17 10:05 mdk91.1 
 
# ls -l /mnt/iso/mdk91.1 
-r--r--r--   10 root     root           65 Sep  1  2000 autorun.inf 
-r--r--r--    9 root     root        18393 Aug 16  2001 COPYING 
dr-xr-xr-x    3 root     root         2048 Mar 17 10:05 doc 
... 
 
# mount -t nfs mercury:/mnt/iso /mnt/images 
# ls /mnt/images 
mdk91.1  
# ls /mnt/images/mdk91.1/ 
# (nothing returned) 
# umount /mnt/images 
# mount -t nfs mercury:/usr/share /mnt/images 
# ls /mnt/images  
# (returns listing) 
# ls /mnt/images/a2ps 
# (returns listing) 
 
What am I doing wrong here?
