Then I was able to mount the shared directory on the client without problems.

Here's the server: magnusg@PuteF Mon Mar 24 12:04:28 [270] ~ $ arp -a PuteB.SMAssociates.com (192.168.1.13) at 00:13:20:8C:8D:D2 [ether] on eth0 ...and the client: magnusg@PuteB Mon Mar 24 12:11:05 [583] /mnt/PuteF $ arp -a PuteF.SMAssociates.com (192.168.1.14) at 00:16:76:C2:73:01 [ether] on eth0 ?

"arp -a" on the server shows the client, while "arp -a" on the client shows the server. > And can you both ping and ssh both directions? client -> server and server -> > client? yes, both ping and ssh work fine.
