Hey,
  Yeah, nfs-client is a virtual package that depends only on nfs-common.
  I was testing the commands here on Ubuntu, but firing up an etch vm
I noticed that /sbin/mount/nfs doesn't exist but it has no issues mounting
nfs.
It does have the nfs-common package installed. NFS mounting is handled
internally by /bin/mount instead of using /sbin/mount.nfs

  What is the output of this?:
ser:# showmount -e 192.168.1.101

and trying explicit options:
ser:# mount -v 192.168.1.101:/var/fs /mnt/nfs
ser:# mount -vt nfs -o nolock 192.168.1.101:/var/fs /mnt/nfs
ser:# mount -vt nfs4 192.168.1.101:/var/fs /mnt/nfs

cheers,
Owen.
