I am trying to NFS mount a directory on my NeXT to my Sun.  I have the
following set up:

/etc/exports:

	/somedir

exportfs -a

From the Sun I type:

	mount remotehost:/somedir /mnt

mount: remotehost:/somedir server not responding: RPC: Authentication error; why = Invalid client credential
mount: giving up on:
   /mnt

Running etherfind -r -v -host remotehost:

The really strange thing is that other machines on campus can mount the
directory, but the machines in my yp domain cannot.  Any ideas?

Thanks.
