Dana,
1) Do you have your workstations listed in your /etc/hosts file? On
the server:
does a "ping ws001" return the correct IP?
2) Try running tcpdump on the server during client boot up to see
if the NFS mount request is coming into the server.
3) Since you got a mystery IP (the 101) are you sure you are not
running
another DHCP server on the network?
