    Just some thoughts:
    - are you trying to mount the nfs-dir over your current working directory?
    - is your nfs server running? ;-)
    - what is the entry in /etc/exports on your nfs server for the directory you
    are trying to mount?
    - what is the command you are using on the nfs client to mount the nfs
    share?
