nfs

I recently reinstalled my file server (moved from fedora to ubuntu server).

Now I cannot mount my nfs share from windows 7, mounting from mac osx works fine.

In windows I either keep getting "the semaphore timeout period has expired" or "an unexpected error has occured".

Does ubuntu need some special magic to allow windows 7 to mount an nfs share?

This is my exports file

/home/bing/     192.168.1.*(rw,async,insecure,no_subtree_check)
/home/bing/mnt/EXTRN2 192.168.1.*(rw,async,insecure,no_subtree_check)
/home/bing/mnt/EXTRN3 192.168.1.*(rw,async,insecure,no_subtree_check)
