Stars usually don't have "trails". If you see a "shooting star", that is not really a star, but a piece of dust that happens to fall into the atmosphere. It is also possible that you confuse this with pictures you saw of comets.

A group of stars that makes a picture in the night sky is known as a constellation.

The stars in each constellation generally are completely unconnected being many 10's or 100's of light years apart. The only thing they have in common is the direction they are from earth.

An example of this is in the southern constellation of Centaurus. The brightest star Alpha Centauri (actually a triple star system) are our closest stars to earth Proxima Centauri is a mere 4.2 light years with Alpha Centauri A and B at 4.3 light years. The next brightest star and the next star in the Centaurus Picture (see related link) is the star Beta Centauri or Hadar. It is about 350 light years away.

How long would the exposure time have to be to create a star trail photograph?

The length of time required to photograph star trails varies depending on how long you would like the trails to appear. Generally, with a 10 minute exposure, you will have very faint trails. With a one hour exposure, you will have trails roughly four times as long. With a 180 minute exposure, you will have trails that are substantially longer, and will noticeably fill the picture. The longer the exposure, the more white the picture will become as it is filled with star trails.
