   Well, I don't know. But things you can try:   
      
   You should try going through YaST NFS client module to set it up.   
      
      
   Connect using:   
      
   mount -v /mnt   
      
   Notice what it says in response. Also watch  the syslog output in both   
   client and server, and the firewall log on both as well. Report back the   
   messages on both.
