Well, the only reason it does not work for me is simply because I have 111 blocked on the server. If I allow it through, nfs does indeed work.

Here the mount command on the client attempts to access the portmapper of the server on port 111: Sep 14 12:23:34 matrix [17193703.828000] nfs outputIN= OUT=eth0 SRC=129.98.90.163 DST=129.98.90.11 LEN=60 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=64 ID=33189 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=60446 DPT=111 WINDOW=5840 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0 -- Maurice Volaski, mvolaski@aecom.yu.edu Computing Support, Rose F.
