Wong,
   The NFS client will prompt you for a username and password when PCNFSD
is running on the NFS server you're trying to mount.  This is to add a little
more security to NFS.  If PCNFSD is rnuning on the server, the NFS client
requires you to enter a username/password combo instead of a UID/GID
combo.  Perhaps you could try disabling PCNFSD on the UNIX box to see
if it's PCNFSD or the actual mounting process that denies you access.
If you do this, the OS/2 client will ask you for a UID/GID combo to use.

If you have no luck with this, you can send me your exports file, the
command line you're using to mount the server, and the output of
showexp run against the server.  I could look at it and try to figure out
what's wrong (I worked for IBM doing development on the NFS client).
A brief description of your network would be helpful too.

Good luck...
