Why not? You're not telling us what goes wrong..

But what are you trying to do, what are you actually doing, what
are you expecting as a result and what do you actually get as a result ?
Make sure you have installed the nfs-kernel-server (not the
nfs-user-server) and that you are actually mounting the filesystem
on the client as NFSv3.
Oh, and you need a 2.4 kernel on both the client and the server,
and the "latest" debian-stable (woody) distribution.
