I am trying to use the mount_nfs command to mount a Sun OS 4.1.4 filesystem
. After I mount the filesystem, I cant do ls or pwd or any such commands 
, because I get a permission denied message. The Sun OS Server has a lot 
of security running , and 

is showing these warnings 

Jun 19 14:59:34 zephyr vmunix: NFS request from unprivileged port.  
Jun 19 14:59:34 zephyr vmunix: nfs_server: weak authentication, source IP 
addres s=198.32.4.160 

rpcinfo works fine from client to the server. 

When I tried mount_nfs -3 to check for version 3 support, 
(because /etc/rc.local on the Sun OS server had some mention of failing 
to allow pre 3.0 clients..)

I get this message from the client mount_nfs : 

mount_nfs: bad MNT RPC: RPC: Program/version mismatch; low version = 1,
high version = 2

My client is a freeBSD 2.2 snapshot version (MIT). The client and server 
are not in the same domain. /etc/exports of the server has valid entries, 
because the mount_nfs without the -3, completes anyway.)

Would appreciate if someone could help with some info.
