/mount/nfs/nfsroot/goober *.mentasm.org(rw,no_root_squash)
Looks like it. OH. Different problem, but it might have some bearing. I
just switched my network from /etc/hosts to DNS zone, and now none of my
clients have permission to mount my NFS exports.
I've asked about it on debian-user, but would any of y'all happen to have
any suggestions? I can mount when the client is in the server's
/etc/hosts, and according to the DNS howto and nslookup, everything's
kosher.

Not sure, actually. The machine's a sun4c (IPX), and I'm booting both
Slink's 2.2.1 and the 2.2.14 from the last set of Potato floppies.
The system I installed to NFS is the year-old Slink set. I'm keeping the
hard drive clean for the next Potato install.
