Are your nfs mounted filesystems declared properly in /etc/fstab
Are the hosts declared in /etc/fstab in /etc/hosts
Is the hostname of the machine wanting to mount the filesystems in the
nfs servers /etc/host file.
Is nfsd running on the server?

cannot resolve name -> IP address.
Check in this order : /etc/hosts, NIS or BIND if used
        The solution was in /etc/resolv.conf where the
        IP address of the server was wrong... (Why ???)
        Thanks again
