I have been using nfsbug to detect remotely mountable file systems in

sometimes nfsbug claims that it failed to mount file systems, and yet
the showmount command claims that all.net has those very systems
mounted.  Could it be that there's a bug in nfsbug?

Perhaps because nfsbug isn't using a reserved port - and you have port 
checking enabled on the server?
