Probably the same thing I went through with OS-9 (Microware, not Apple)
connectivity. The 2.6 kernel (where NFS now lives) uses a newer version
of NFS by default. It also uses udp instead of tcp.

Can you mount an export from OS/X on SUSE 10.0?

When mounting on SUSE 10.0, I needed to add this to the fstab options:

udp,nfsvers=2

I do not know how you specify this when exporting. Or even if you can.
But maybe this will get you started in the right direction.

Hope this helps.
