I too ran into this problem three days ago. Fortunately I called my local Sun FE and he knew the problem right off. Error 13 is permission denied (I think). Solution is to add the following to your /etc/exports on the 4/490 /home -root=straub:schlitz where /home is the partition of the new swap partition and straub:schlitz in my situation are 2 diskless clients that have their swap out of place.
