i can't think of any reason why that message shouldn't mean what it appears
to mean, namely that you don't have that directory on the machine that is
trying to mount the nfs share, as i said before my knowledge is at its limt

why not start from the beginning, as root run this command on machine 1:
exportfs machine2name:/home
as root on machine 2 creat a temp directory say /nfs
run this command :
mount -t nfs machine1name:/home /nfs
on my two machine this allows me to cd /nfs on machine 2 and see the contents
of /home on machine1, if this doesn't work for you then apart from using
machine1name.localdomain and machine2name.localdomain instead of just the
machine names i can only guess that your setup is suffuciently different to
mine that i can't help, if this does work (check it in both directions) then
the problem probably lies in your system files setup
