If you are trying to do an nfs mount of the server, be aware that the
hosts.alloy, hosts.deny files are used by nfs as well as inetd to
determine authorized/denied hosts. It is a feature of glibc 2x
Since this is a router type host, you probably have some host allow, host
deny rules.
This one bit me in the @$$ a long time ago.
