Hi Betsie, Not quite the same, but I can successfully mount a BFS file system and write a file to it using CentOS 4.4 at the same kernel and nfs-utils levels as you.
I remember having some time out problems when I set it up, and resolved it by adding an entry to /etc/hosts for VM, so it used the local IP address, instead of the DNS address, which faced the rest of the network. (10.199.103.5, instead of 10.199.3.48, Linux is 10.199.103.6).

IBM's test system at kernel level 2.6.9-5 and nfs-utils-1.0.6-46 does mount successfully. A trace shows the Linux system sending a null procedure to VMNFS which sends back a response. Nothing happens after that. If anyone running RHEL AS 4 can NFS mount an SFS file system, please let me know what kernel level and nfs level you are running.
