: This implies you are mounting the image on the server (presumably with
: - -loop) before exporting it. If you are, this is not necessary, you just
: export the iso image.

You are correct that I had the .iso mounted using a loopback device.
I didn't realise that directly exporting the .iso would work.
When I checked "messages" I saw that authoriisation was being denied.
That reminded me that I had some stuff in /etc/allow and /etc/deny to
allow only certain machines in the lab to access Portmap.
Clearing the "deny" list fixed the problem.
Thanks.
