I'm getting a little crazy over this because I know I have done it
before and I can't make it work now.

I am trying to NFS mount the /mnt/cdrom directory of machine
192.168.1.1. This machine (192.168.1.3) is listed in the /etc/exports
file of the target machine.

here is the /etc/exports file from 192.168.1.1:

/mnt/cdrom/ 192.168.1.3(ro,no_root_squash,insecure)
192.168.1.254(ro,no_root_squash)
/home 192.168.1.3(rw,no_root_squash) 192.168.1.254(rw,no_root_squash)
/ 192.168.1.3(rw,no_root_squash) 192.168.1.254(rw,no_root_squash)

here is the line from /etc/fstab on 192.168.1.3:

192.168.1.1:/mnt/cdrom       /cdhouse        nfs     
nodev,nosuid,ro,noauto 1 1

If I do not have a cd mounted on the target directory I can mount NFS
mount it. If I have a cd mounted on 192.168.1.1 I cannot mount
/mnt/cdrom from 192.168.1.3. I get the error:

mount: 192.168.1.1:/mnt/cdrom failed, reason given by server: Permission
denied

Any ideas?

Thanks
Bobby
