I have a feeling this is a stupid question and is quite simple, but i've
been through man pages and documentation until my face turns blue, so I
figured i'd send a mail asking for a little help.

I'm trying to just do a simple nfs mount from one linux server to another,
here is the current setup:

both servers run portmap, mountd, nfsd from "rc" scripts.
EXPORTS file on server1:

/usr server2.domain.org(no_root_squash)

[root@server2 /]# mount server1:/usr /mnt
mount clntupd_create: RPC: Program not registered

MESSAGES file on server1 after that command:

Jul 31 21:29:09 atog portmap[815]: connect from server2_ip_add to
getport(mountd): request from unauthorized host

I verified that both machines can resolve each others domain names either
direction. I've tried using either long or short name in the exports file
and doing a /etc/rc.d/init.d/nfs restart after changing them.

on server1:
showmount -e
/usr server2.ipaddress
/usr server2.domain.org

on server2:
showmount -e server1
mount clntupd_create: RPC: Program not registered

I bet this is something silly, so probably no need to mail the entire
list, you can reply directly to: hayward@slothmud.org

thanks for your help,
