Just for the records I wanted to summarize how the problem resolved:

The Linux server allows NFS accesses only from reserved ports.
Amd used a reserved port for the mount operation (by chance ?),
but not for the data transfers.
(That's why the mount succeeds, but not the data transfers.)

Joerg Wunsch pointed me to a new, undocumented option in amd that
instructs it to use a reserved port (<1024).

Adding opts=...,resvport,... to the mount-map solved it.

It was J Wunsch who wrote:
