[Cialug] nfs issue

Trying to mount a nas drive volume via nfs:

# showmount -e nas
Export list for nas:
/mnt/HD/HD_a2 *

Mounting is successful:

# mount nas:/mnt/HD/HD_a2 /mnt/backup/
# mount
nas:/mnt/HD/HD_a2 on /mnt/backup type nfs (rw,addr=192.168.2.251)

For some reason, however, the filesystem is readonly:

# cd /mnt/backup
# mkdir lvl
mkdir: cannot create directory `lvl': Read-only file system

Don't do much nfs, .. did I mis-interpret the output of showmount?

	Thanks!
