    Ok, Dan,
    One more try, but let's attack the problem through the firewall instead.
    Again, open YaST2, using the method I described before and go to the
    Security and Users>Firewall module. This helps you setup SuSEfirewall2
    and should provide you with the tools to get the NFS ports open.
    Referring back to my 9.0 Admin manual, I couldn't find anything in the
    NFS section, but looked at the firewall section. That's where I
    remembered one could setup for different services, etc. to give others
    access to certain things. Now I can't confirm this will help, as I
    haven't or needed to go in this direction.

    I think it should help though as not that much has changed here from 9.0
    to 9.2. Time to update? ;o)

    luck,
    Lee
