I don't know if I can help but here's an attempt. I have about 30 Debian systems some SGIs and a few Suns at work with NFS running well. When you edit your /etc/exports file on a Linux system you need to tell rpc.nfsd and rpc.mountd to re-read it. You do this by sending them a HUP signal. I use this command: killall -HUP rpc.nfsd rpc.mountd Rebooting should work too but is much slower. If this doesn't work, carefully check your /etc/exports file while reading the "exports" man page to be sure it's correct. Good luck...
