This problem seems to have been solved. I believe that the issue was a 
misconfiguration of the NFS server. I had:

/home/rikiheck/files 192.168.1.0/24(rw,sync,no_subtree_check,fsid=0)
/home/nancy/files 192.168.1.0/24(rw,sync,no_subtree_check)
/home/photos 192.168.1.0/24(rw,sync,no_subtree_check)
/multi 192.168.1.0/24(rw,sync,no_subtree_check)
/git 192.168.1.0/24(rw,sync,no_subtree_check)

But /home/rikiheck/files was an ordinary directory that I want to export, not 
the root for NFSv4. It was being mounted as NFSv3 (trying to mount with nfs4 
would fail). But I'm guessing that it was being treated inconsistently between 
the client and the server. Removing the 'fsid=0' tag solved the problem. It's 
still a bit of a mystery what exactly the firewall was blocking, but it wasn't 
a firewall problem, in the end.

Thanks to everyone who offered suggestions and advice, especially Ed Greshko.

Probably I will take the opportunity to move anyway to NFSv4, now that I've 
done all this reading about how to do that!


Happy to hear it is all working.

Be careful that you don't read articles that are outdated on NFSv4. Things have 
changed and there is no need
to do bind mount or something like that.
