The problem apparenlty is with the portmapper in netbase_2.06-1 in bo (unstable). HostA (was called "server" in my previous posting) uses both versions of mountd, ver. 1 and mountd ver. 2, and has no problems mounting from itself or from host B. Host B , the "client", uses mountd ver 1, and only mounts from itself. To mount from HostA, as you advised me, it needs the "-o mountport" option. Host uses netbase_2.06-1 (stable), whose corresponding netstd package provides only one version of mountd. I will wait 12 hours for any comments, then I will report a bug on the portmapper of the unstable netbase package.
