OK, then your NFS problem is actually a DNS problem. Check that the laptop firewall allows port 53 udp and tcp through. Try disabling the laptop firewall and retry. From the laptop can you telnet to port 53 on the server?

Without changing firewall configuration, telnet ip_address 53 connected, telnet FQDN 53 did not. Turning off the firewall made no difference to this, nor did re-enabling the firewall and checking the DNS box in YaST
Could you please post a copy of your /etc/hosts file and your /etc/resolv.conf file. There appears to be a problem with one or both of these files. Also PLEASE only reply to the list! I don't need two copies of your reply. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 * Only reply to the list please* "The day Microsoft makes something that doesn't suck is probably the day they start making vacuum cleaners." -Ernst Jan Plugge
