Something has bugged me for ages about trying to use NFS between

That's nearly right, I think you found the same howto I did a while ago.
It's true that the ports used by NFS and associated services tend to
float and need to be fixed.
The correct, ootb way to do it I think I've already mentioned on this
list, and Amadeus W.M. has the right way for RHEL and its kin.
Tim, I think that the the "open NFS" checkbox should lock these ports. I
don't use the standard firewall tools; if it doesn't do that, then
perhaps you could bz it? It's a fair expectation that "allow access to
my NFS server" means do all things necessary to "allow access to my NFS
server."
