fstab contains the line: "poblano:/home/stan /home/stan/nfs/poblano nfs defaults 0 0"
An attempt to write this configuration results in: "Unable to mount NFS entries from /etc/fstab"
I must be doing something foolish, but I don't see it.
Did you configure the server's export file? If not, add the following line to poblano:/etc/exports
Here are the entries in YaST > NFS Server (in poblano): Start server is checked Directories to export: /home/stan Hosts: chipotle (the laptop) Options: rw,root_squash,sync,no_subtree_check (just as you now suggest) I think that already does what you write below.

or, if you want to limit the nfs access to /home/stan only:

Yast may help you to do this. Select "NFS Server" in "Network Services".
It usually does, but it seems not to help now. As I have been doing for many moons, I have been doing all this configuration in YaST. Something else must be missing.
