# mount -t nfs STKserver:/mnt/stuff /mnt/share/
mount to NFS server 'STKserver' failed.

# tail -f /var/log/messages <--- on STKserver
Then try to mount it again. Check the log for errors.
Jul 17 17:30:51 stkserver portmap[2894]: connect from 222.169.100.101 to
getport(nfs): request from unauthorized host
on the server i had this:
# cat /etc/hosts.allow
portmap: 222.168.100. : 127.
and also tried w/ this:
# cat /etc/hosts.allow
portmap: 222.168.100.101/255.255.255.0 : 127.
