There are a couple of things to check. Does the command exportfs -va cause
the exports to start working? How about exportfs -vr?
If neither of those work, what does running the two commands get you?
for i in nfs nfslock portmap; do service $i stop; done
for i in portmap nfslock nfs; do service $i start; done
Of course, you want to look in /var/log/messages to see if the kernel is
telling you anything there.
