Yes I've issued the command netfs restart (nfs doesn't seem to work in 7.1).
I get this error message: 
Mounting NFS filesystems mount: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = Connection refused 
This happen's during boot or when I restart after making configuration changes.
====================================
Here is boss' fstab entry:
darkstar.ken.org:/net2  /root/Desktop/Network   nfs      exec,dev,suid,rw 1 1
====================================
The folder /net2 exists on darkstar and CAN'T be accessed from boss.
====================================
Boss' exports file:
net1 darkstar.ken.org(rw,no_root_squash,insecure)

I have fought this problem through several months and several distro's not just
LM. I'm pretty sure I have overlooked something in the configuration, but for
the life of me I don't know what.
In my original post I had the directory mounts backward, darkstar CAN mount
the  directory on boss but boss CAN'T mount the  directory on darkstar. 
I only have the barest minimum of networking knowledge so simple explainations
will be of more help to me. OH, the network set up is coax  with terminators in
a  2 system network, if it makes any difference.
Thanks a LOT for your help. It's this feeling of co-operation
that makes Linux the great OS that it is.
