this is usually an indication that the nfs server or some
other RPC service(usually portmapper) are not runing on
the server. check to be sure they are running.

typically

/etc/init.d/portmap start
/etc/init.d/nfs-server start
(or if your using kernel nfs server):
/etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server start

from the nfs server itself. also be sure there is no firewall
inbetween the 2 systems or anything else that would block access
to ports(NAT, or something else). while i like nfs a lot i wish
it was more clean in the port numbers it uses.
