Subject: NFS mount problem
I am running different set of ipchains rules on different boxes in my local network at home. Since I do lot of home based projects, I need to control access between the boxes -- so that clients from outside can access only the resources they need to access.

I know it is not DNS or hosts issue, as I can 'dig' to the NFS box and also I can mount with ipchains disabled.

Thanks,
Sundar
