I just discovered that I have the same problem here. This computer is supposed
to mount two fileservers. One of the fileservers runs Centos 5 and the other
is an Intel SS-4000E (a dedicated fileserver that runs its own embedded Linux).
The Centos 5 server mounted fine, but the Intel fileserver failed.
My fstab is set up as follows:
fileserver:/nas/NASDisk-00002/files/ /mnt/fileserver nfs
defaults 0 0
After rebooting my computer last night when it finished updating to
nfs-utils-1.2.0-5.fc11.x86_64 the fileserver failed to mount. I found out
about it this morning when my overnight backup to the fileserver failed to work.
Running the mount command from the commandline tells me this:

[root at mutt frankcox]# mount fileserver:/nas/NASDisk-00002/files/ /mnt/fileserver
mount.nfs: requested NFS version or transport protocol is not supported
END OF QUOTE:
Using the suggested option "-o proto=udp", it mounted fine.

That worked and my Intel fileserver is now present on this computer again.
