My _simple_ network problem

[Cameron Matheson <mkarl1@uswest.net>]

Hey

I got a problem that's probably kind of stupid, but I'm afraid I've RTFM
way too many times, without results.  I have a network going with my
friend with our two linux's (both running slink, we're waiting for the
2.2 CD in the mail).  Anyway, we want to do a little file-swappin' with
NFS, but when he tries to mount my hard-drive (I'm kind of set up to be
the server) it says:
    mount: tux:\ failed, reason given by server: Permission denied

This is my /etc/hosts.allow file:
    ALL : 192.168.1. : allow

The NFS-HOWTO says I need to be able to telnet for this to work, I don't
know how to use telnet, and the man-page was very un-enlightening, so I
was hoping one of you might be able to help me.  If i was'nt specific
enough, please just tell me what info you need, and I'll send it
promptly.

Thanks,
Cameron Matheson
