[lug] mac NFS mounts with Linux exports

I used to love Macs.  So much easier to deal with than Windows.  I
hooked my wife and daughter up to our ripped music on my NFS exports
from a Fedora box.  No problem.

My wife did an OS update the other day.  Now nothing works.

It refuses to mount the NFS export.  The logs seem to imply it doesn't
have permission.  But it does.  All hosts on the internal (home) network
can mount the NFS export.  The export looks like this:

/music 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0(rw,sync,no_root_squash,insecure)

I can find no reason why the mount shouldn't work now.  

On a similar note, the wireless stopped working after the update.  I
finally had to give up and wire her into the network.  That was last
week. Now, for unknown reasons, the wireless is connected again.  Ugh.
Since it comes on automatically, I turned off the AirPort connection and
tried the NFS mount again.  No change.

Any mac experts know of any issues with the latest macos updates related
to NFS?
