Trying to configure NFS

Hello. Im trying to configure NFS to access to some folders from another computer in my wireless network.
Ive been following the archwiki. In the server computer I ve created the folders in srv/nfs4/ . Ive mounted them with fstab. Ive edited the exports file and Ive put the rpc-idmapd.service and rpc-mountd.service to run from the startup.
But when I go to the client computer and I want to follow the first step and i execute showmount -e with my hostname, it doesnt find me anything.

Thanks
