Does showmount -e hostname show that the file system is being exported?

If you:

   snoop -o /tmp/snoop.out <linux>

then snoop -V -i snoop.out nfs

   Do you see any clues in the snoop trace?

   I ran into NFS problems from a laptop between Solaris and Redhat until
I turned off Redhat's "security level" thingie.  I don't know what it
does behind the scenes, but it was apparently filtering RPC.

   From Solaris:

   mount -o vers=2

has frequently been a fix for other NFS-related problems.  Worth a try.
