$ sudo mount  192.168.0.118:/mnt/Free_NAS /LINUX_Share
mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting 
192.168.0.118:/mnt/Free_NAS
$ showmount -e 192.168.0.118
Export list for 192.168.0.118:
/mnt/Free_NAS/LINUX 198.162.0.0          {Where did it get that?}

/etc/exports has nothing in it.

Could the problem have anything to do with the fact that my user ID on 
Free_NAS is 1001, but on all of my LINUX computers it is 1000?
