Hello all,
We are experiencing an (apparently) recent phenomenon involving
intermittent problem authenticating clients against NFS.
Clients can generally connect, but periodically, a random given client
will attempt to authenticate against NFS, and will fail with (example)
"Oct 30 14:02:46 info-1 rpc.mountd: refused mount request from lib-ncd9
for /home (/): no export entry" logged in /var/log/messages.
Once first client fails to authenticate, each subsequent attempt to
authenticate from any client fails causing a cascading effect until each
parent process managing connection is killed and/or client system is
hard rebooted which is now taking down our ncd900 terminals on an
all-too regular basis.
Previous admin tells me that the wildcard option in /etc/exports has
been in place for a few years before these problems started occuring.
Problem does not appear to affect xterminals running telnet on the same
network using os.350.
Many thanks for any insights people can provide.

The client is trying to mount "/home" but...

Client config problem?
