The first hit says you need nfsd and mountd running.  Granted it is
talking about Solaris, so the paths to things are wrong, but it's a
start.  Doing the same search at

  http://www.google.com/linux

will give you a bit more relevant results.

The answer to your problem is that you need nfsd, mountd, portmap, and
maybe one or two other things running on both ends, and no firewalling
or /etc/hosts.deny entries on either end.  Generally on Red Hat boxes
it should be enough to do the following:

    service portmap start
    service nfslock start
    service nfs start

*In that order*.
