Firewall?
	service iptables status # iptables -nL
	service iptables stop # this turns off firewall for testing

Is portmap running?
	service rpcbind status
	service rpcbind start
	rpcinfo -p

/etc/exports syntax? I'd use:
	/media/Fedora	*(ro)

Is NFS running?
	service nfs status
	service nfs start
	exportfs -a
	showmount -e
