Thanks to all who gave hints on this problem. This is what I was
missing:

Make sure your mountd daemon is running with the -n option - this
permits non-root mounts on NFS-served disks.
If you used the GUI to setup NFS serving then you should have seen
the box to check to allow non-root mounts. Look in your rc.config
for the entry for mountd - you may also see if this is in there:
NONROOTMOUNTS="1"
export NONROOTMOUNTS
.......................................................
And the original question:
........................................................
I am trying to mount adisk from my Alpha workstation (OSF/1 4.0d) in an
SGI (IRIX 6.2) by NFS. Unless I give it root access from the SGI host, I
keep getting an I/O error. This happens even if the disk does not belong
to root, but a user. Is that something normal, or am I (most probably)
missing something?
