So this directory is owned by root and nobody else has write permission 
on it.

Please run "id" as your regular user account that you want to use this 
share as.

By default, root access to NFS shares isn't allowed (see the root_squash 
option in "man exports").

Ideally the directory "/home/batmanbegins/nfsshare" on 192.168.168.10 
should be owned by your user, or a group you are in, and have the 
appropriate write permission.
