Is "-all dirs" a typo, meaning "-alldirs"? Does that mean you are tying this up into the email? Please quote directly from the files. Is "10.1.1.1" and "255.255.255.0" just copypasted from the FAQ, or are they the actual values for your network? Is "user1" just copypasted? I mean, do you actually have "user1" on your NFS server?

Yes. > nfs_mount returned "Permission denied." > That was with just the mount command Please always quote the exact full command and the exact full output. "Permission denied" means that the server decided not not allow the client to mount the filesystem.
