This is strange - you shouldn't be getting these errors unless you are
an NFS client. Double check your /etc/fstab and /etc/exports files. If
that doesn't make sense post the output of these two commands to the list:

# grep nfs /etc/fstab 
# egrep -v '^#' /etc/exports

hammerhead:/home/mark# grep nfs /etc/fstab
hammerhead:/home/mark#
hammerhead:/home/mark# egrep -v '^#' /etc/exports
/home/mark/vmware    192.168.25.0/255.255.255.0(rw)
hammerhead:/home/mark#

Hmmm.....I must have experimented with vmware at one time on this computer. No need for it now.
