Make sure you have an /etc/exports file on the machine you wish to mount
as NFS. For example the following /etc/exports file might look like
this.
	/mnt/zip	*.foobar.com(rw)
	/mnt/ftp/rpms	*.foobar.com(ro)
This states that all hosts within the foobar.com domain can mount the
points--one is read only, the other is read write. Make sure you look at
the man pages too.

You must have these remote mount points set up before you can mount the
mount points. If you have further questions, you can email me directly. 
Bill.
