LOL! I forgot to check the console at boot. Been administering all the machines remotely and you forget to do the most basic thing. *sigh* Anyways, yes there was an error when starting mountd. It takes a few seconds to start but then it failed giving mount[618] error saying it can't resolve the first host in /etc/exports file. I add the first host in /etc/hosts file and reboot but then mountd can't resolve the second host in the list. So right now I use the machines IP addresses in /etc/exports file and it works flawlessly. Perhaps I need to set mountd to start later in the boot process so that it can resolve the hostnames in /etc/exports file? Thanks though.
