When i try to mount an nfs filesystem i get a port mapper timed out error. I have 2 linux(gentoo) boxes and 1 freebsd box. I cant mount any shares.

/etc/exports on all boxes
Code:

/ 192.168.(rw)
#I have also tried 192.168.*(rw)


no hosts.allow or hosts.deny on gentoo boxes

/etc/hosts.allow on bsd
Code:

#Starts with
ALL : ALL : allow
#which should allow all
#just in case i also have
portmap : 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0 : allow
portmap : ALL : deny

Probably a stupid question, but is portmapper installed and running on the client machines, too?

Any chance of a client / server version mismatch? Only v3 on the server, but only v2 clients, something of that sort?

Can the FreeBSD machine mount itself? Any clues in the server's nfsd logs? Can it see a connection attempt? RPC error messages? tcpdump tell you anything useful?

Usual timeout when bsd box tries to mount itself
when 1 gentoo box mounts self:

reason given by server: Permission denied

and the other:

mount: RPC: port mapper failure - RPC: unable to retrieve
