	Kernel 2.6.9 on both hosts (server is x86-64, client i386),
client nfs-utils-1.0.6-22 on Fedora Core 2, server nfs-utils-1.0.6-34
on Fedora Core 3 test 3.

:   Does your server expect to see reserved ports only (<1024).

	Yes (there is no "insecure" option in /etc/exports).

:   Can you do a tcpdump of the mounts?
: 
	Yes - I did. The failing mount request uses unprivileged source port
unlike the previous ones.

:     tcpdump -s 1600 -i eth0 -n -p -w somefile.pcap udp port X or tcp port X
: 
: 
:   tcpdump -r somefile.pcap -T rpc -n 

	I will do this on Monday - now I am not nowhere near these servers.

	But as I said, the problem is that the client runs out of privileged
ports, because both portmap request and mountd request are done over TCP.
