Try 'showmount -e <server_ip>'

is there anything in the logfile of the server? Maybe the client isn’t listed for a specific exported file system.

Hi

You need export directories that you want to do mount. If you want mount /home you need edit /etc/exports file and add the next line:

/home *(rw,all_squash,anonuid=150,anongid=100)

If you want know more exportfs options: "man exports". After that you need execute "exportfs -r" to activate changes.

Now try again.
