Are you root when mounting on the client?
From looking at your prompt # I think you are, but I ask just to make
sure.
You can also take a look at

nfs.html
in the handbook
Thanks for the reply. Yes, I'm running as root on the client when I try
the mount.
It was the handbook I was following in my attempt to set up NFS.
OK.
With -n (allow from non root users) for mountd the mount succeeds
although without it doesn't but you are root on the client. The nfs
server is use is still 7.4 and I cannot find a difference in the man
pages of 7 and 9 mountd and mount_nfs regarding to this issue.
In regard to the security implications, I think that we don't want
mounts from trusted clients by a non root user who cannot bind to
privileged ports, thus deny unprivileged ports.
