First, make sure OpenBSD's portmap daemon is running.  It's a must.
Second, issue the command 'showmount -e xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx' or use the
hostname of the Windows machine, if it's resolvable.  That will show you
what NFS mounts are exported from the Windows machine.  If you get some
error message similar to what you saw before, verify that the NFS config
is correct on the Windows machine and that you have portmap and the
OpenBSD nfs client running.
