It's been about 4 years since I last had to do that (so no guarantees), but 
If I remember correctly the data argument for NFS is not just a string.  
Instead I believe that you have to do some other magic to encode the data 
correctly.  I would recommend looking at the source code for mount and see 
what happens.
