[Techtalk] nfs question

Hi All,
I'm a bit embarassed to ask this question, but here goes anyway. I have
two home computers running RH6.2(zoot). On the server the /etc/exports
file has the entry:
/goodstuff hosta(rw,insecure)
I start nfs by running:
/sbin/service nfs start
I get the messages that nfs starts
On the client I run the command
mkdir /somedir
mount -t nfs server::/goodstuff /somedir
I test the command by running mount
mount reports that /goodstuff from server is mounted to /somedir
I try to touch a file from the client to the mounted resource:
touch somefile /somedir
and I get permission denied.
What am I missing? The two hosts can ping one another so the entries for
each other in the /etc/hosts table is correct.
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance,
Phil
