Not true--the nfs connections are all mountd and rpc Grrrr--Wasn't aware that particular misinformation was travelling TCP_INTERNAL_SERVICES="109 110 111 1024 725 728 1025 628 701 1028 1029" Will work just fine in your firewall setttings--BTW though, you probably also need to set the DNS allowed in the firewall settings to include 192.168.0.1 if ever you expand the local to include more than your laptop or else the local machines will be unable to access each other by name (and their IPs are all on DHCP).
