this calls for running a sniffer on the open-bsd machine, listening for
all traffic going between its IP and the server's IP, then running the
'mount_nfs' command again. you will probably see that eventualy the BSD
machine sends packets that do not get any replies. based on the port
number to which the BSD machine tries to connect, you'll know who the
culprit process is.
you must learn to use a sniffer and strace whenever applicable (strace is
not applicable here, since the IP packets are sent by obsd's kernel, not
by the user-space mount_nfs command).
as for the suggestion that was raised regarding checking connectivity to
port 2049 - you can do this using netcat ('nc' is the name of the command
- somehting like 'nc -u <host> <port>').
