Be careful what you wish for :-)

After a reboot, we have the problem below.  A new failure, prior to 
getting to the NFS problem. Sigh!

The client was running just what was on the Fedora 16 distribution ISO.

Perhaps this will shed some light on the NFS issue. Perhaps not. 
Perhaps I can find an old Atari.

mount -v -v -v -t nfs4 mtranch://nfs4exports/home /mtranch-home
