Is your NFS server doing NFSV3 or NFSV4? "showmount -e" doesn't work if
the server is NFSV4 and I suspect that's what Nautilus is doing (or
something like it).

If you have access to the NFS server, try altering the options to the
nfsd daemon to not offer V4/V4.1. This can be done by passing it the
"-V 3" or "-N 4" options (or you can edit the "RPCNFSDARGS" variable
in /etc/sysconfig/nfs, put the option in there and "systemctl restart 
nfs-config") and try browsing it again.

This is a shot in the dark here. It's bitten some of our people here.
They could mount the exports, but not browse them.
