>Description:
Remote host has interfaces:  135.104.73.11/29, 135.104.73.129/29;
Remote filesystem is /dev/wd0s4e mounted on /local

Local host is 135.104.73.82/29.
135.104.73.11 is nearest interface through multiple hops.
From local host:  mount 135.104.73.11:/local /mnt succeeds, but
                  mount 135.104.73.129:/local /mnt fails.

FYI, the /etc/exports file on remote host is (although this appears irrelevant),

yankees# more /etc/exports
/local -alldirs -maproot=0 -network=135.104.73  -mask=255.255.255.0
/local -alldirs -maproot=0 -network=135.180.182 -mask=255.255.255.0

A tcpdump trace on remote host shows the following  (There are multiple sequences of 
sunrpc and nfs requests back and forth, but this one appears to indicate
the problem:

I have the full tcpdump traces of both the success and failure conditions are
on request.



>How-To-Repeat:
Have a multi-homed host as above; attempt to mount a filesystem by 
explicitly specifying the addresses of different interfaces.
