Does this work? It shouldn't, since you allege a 24-bit mask but
don't specify a 24-bit nit address!
Anyway,

This should be OK, abbreviated domain names to be resolv(8)ed are
allowed. You may have trouble with accessing files unless your user
IDs are the same on both machines, though. (Note that root is by
default squashed to the anonymous user, so being root won't help.)
Sun NFS avoids this issue by almost always being used in tandem with
NIS so that each user has a netwide user ID in effect. This should
not affect the ability to mount, though.

After these changes, I assume that you have (a) rebooted arrakis or
(b) done `killall -HUP rpc.nfsd' and `killall -HUP rpc.mountd' on
arrakis?
I would take out the TCP wrapper controls on portmapper as an
experiment. Also, do you have something like ALL: ALL in
/etc/hosts.deny? I'm not sure what happens in that case, inetd might
do something evil (but I think not since inetd shouldn't be listening
on mountd's ports).

Have you done this from marlboro, or on arrakis only?

Actually, only one. It is providing services both by UDP and by TCP,
and for three separate versions of the protocol, totaling six separate
services provided by the one daemon.

That depends on whether something else is trying to start it.

Do you have firewalls set up besides the IP masquerading?
