Hi Chris,

dfmounts simply dumps the /etc/rmtab file on the server.
This is known to be unreliable and always has been, and
I can promise you that it is not consulted as new
connection attempts are evaluated.  I think you're
looking at a shiny red herring.

This should do it:

# cat > /etc/rmtab
# svcadm restart nfs/server
