Request for mount_nfs assistance

192.168.0.244's /etc/exports file says:

/usr/home1      -maproot=root   192.168.0.252
/usr/home1      -maproot=root   192.168.0.253 

192.168.0.252 is the machine that should have access to 192.168.0.244's drive, but was having difficulty obtaining it.  I'm kind of surprised to see the entry for 192.168.0.253, because I don't think that machine has any need for access to the drive.  

Do these two entires in the /etc/exports file create a conflict?  

I don't believe there were any recent network-related changes.
