These look like problems with the MOUNT requests. Specifically, the client isn't getting an answer from the server. Since the client is making a MOUNT request, it would seem that it is able to get a response from the server's portmap (to find out what port to send the request to). So, networking is working at least that much. What does "showmount -e <SERVER-NAME-OR-IP-ADDRESS>" output? My guess is that would probably time out as well. Can any other NFS clients successfully mount the server? Have you tried looking at the packets being sent/received? On both the client and the server? Wireshark/tcpdump/snoop can help you look at that. HTH --macko
