Frank,

Slightly off-topic: you might want to look at migrating to NFSv4. You 
only need one port (tcp port 2049) for it, so you don't need to do the 
port pinning stuff noted above.

Once you learn the basic quirks of NFSv4, it seems to work much more 
reliably than v3 ever did for me.

My 2 cents...
