Did this replaced nfsserver with my ip 192.168.1.103 and
mountpoint with /brads

Tried this and got the error:
	mount:192.168.1.103:/home/brad failed, reason given by
server: Permission denied

Tried this with the same error

I tried changeing the nfsserver to nfsserver and the machine's

OK no errors

OK no errors

BTW - I can now ping between the two machines.

Question - if I get this to work I'll need to hard code the IP
