That's fairly normal. One way around it is to use automounter, so that
when the mount point is accessed, the nfs share is automatically
mounted, then unmounted after a period of inactivity. Regular users do
not need an additional rights for it.
I don't particularly like to do things 'to get around' issues; I'd
rather understand what's going on and why things are happening. The
troubleshooting page on tldp's NFS how-to alluded to a permission
problem where server and client uids and gids aren't matched, but mine are.
I've done a look-see on some automount tutorials and howto's.... jeesh,
auto_direct, auto_master, blah blah blah. That seems to be a lot more
work to do something that oughta work just fine with fstab. :(
