[plug] NFS Problem (RPC: Timed Out)

[Tim White]

I have a NFS server giving problems. It authenticates the request but 
the RPC times out on the client. Sometimes after a number of tries (as 
the client are set to background the mount request) it will get through.
It happens on a number of clients for this one server. Client error is 
'mount: RPC: Timed out'
The server is 192.168.0.8 and the clients are 192.168.0.5,78
Thanks
Tim

The server is running:
ii  nfs-common                1.0.6-1                   NFS support 
files common to client and server
ii  nfs-kernel-server         1.0.6-1                   Kernel NFS 
server support
