[PLUG] Exporting via nfs

We recently purchased a MacPro notebook. I have most of my music and 
video files on my linux debian machine in subfolders under mounts 
/share1 and /share2. I have both of these in /etc/exports, and nfsd is 
running. However, I am unable to mount_nfs them from the Mac. I very 
likely could have something incorrect with my exports file. I think I 
also have to tweak my Belkin router. Interesting that my network printer 
was found effortlessly by the Mac, and sees it as psc2500 at debian.Belkin. 
I could use some pointers.
