portmap installed?

Something like this in /etc/hosts.allow on the server?

portmap:    192.168.3.0/24
lockd:      192.168.3.0/24
mountd:     192.168.3.0/24
statd:      192.168.3.0/24

Do you have resolvable hostnames for e7a?  ie: something like this in /etc/hosts

192.168.3.4 e7a.xxx

Just guessing here.
