/etc/fstab on the client box9:
.

    192.168.1.48:/home/NFS-files    /mnt/home    nfs   
    defaults,rw,user        0 0

    192.168.1.48:/media/SimpleDrive/data/      /mnt/home       nfs   
    defaults,rw,user    0 0

    [root at box9 /]# ll /etc/fstab
    -rw-rw-r-- 1 bobg root 1072 2009-06-29 17:33 /etc/fstab

/etc/fstab on the server box48:
.

    192.168.1.48/home/NFS-files    /mnt/home      nfs      rw,user    0 0

    [root at box48 ~]# ll  /etc/fstab
    -rw-rw-r-- 1 bobg root 1250 2009-07-04 14:32 /etc/fstab

And /etc/exports on the server:

    [root at box48 ~]# cat /etc/exports
    #!/bin/bash
    #    /etc/exports

    /home/NFS-files        192.168.1.0/24(rw,sync,no_root_squash)

    /home/NFS-share    192.168.1.0/24(rw,sync,no_root_squash)

    /home/NFS-mac/    192.168.1.0/24(rw,insecure,sync,no_root_squash)

    # /home/NFS-share        */26(rw)

    /ISO            192.168.1.0/24(rw,sync,no_root_squash)

    /media/SimpleDrive/data/   
    192.168.1.0/24(rw,sync,insecure,no_root_squash)


I tried to get the log to show something specific to nfs but nothing!
