The NFS server is a Linux system. I'd have to check exactly, but the 
kernel is within the last couple
of months stable  version, and the NFS daemons are 'recent' vintage...

I have not used any 'options' in my mount command:

mount 192.168.0.253:/home/exports/CVSBUILD /mnt

Is the approximate command line.
