sometimes .. you have to worry about nfs-v2 vs nfs-v3
	solaris and linux may not be talking the same version

sometimes  you need to use 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0 format
	instead of just hostname

sometimes you have to fix  solaris:/etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny
	- add portmap and mount entries

sometimes you have to turn on the portmap and nfsd on the
exporting nfs server
