Yes, but I am not. I'm using the default kernel option which I believe
is enabled with the mentioned rc.conf switch, or am I wrong here?

Firewall has been disabled and seems not the problem, since (even with
the firewall enabled) the manual mount works fine. In case of fw
problems this would be a problem too.

Also what puzzles me is the fact that a new identical setup box has no
problem. As I wrote earlier the only difference is that I did not select
the 'enable nfs client' from the sysinstall this time. I have not used
any of the mentioned flags on the second box too, so why does it work on
that machine?
