redhat NFS mounts

Thought I'd try here before going to the redhat-specific groups...

I now have 45 minutes experience with redhat, trying to get an NFS mount
from a solaris 2.7 box to work. The filesystem is exported, and the
netfs service is running on the RH box (uname reports 2.4.18-14).

snoop on the server shows that it is responding with a "mount OK" which
is apparently being ignored by the client. It continues to send requests
until generating an RPC timeout message in the terminal window. Anything
else to look at on the client side?

Please respond to me directly as well as to the list, as I believe my
subscribed email address finally stopped working today. My old ISP has
been bought and sold one too many times, this time I believe the plug
has been pulled.

Thanks - 

Steve
