You will want to try using NFS4 instead, mount_nfs is only for the

You need to use mount -t nfs4 but I don't remember the exact syntax.

No manual entry for mount
What does he mean by "No such file or directory"? ./gcommon (in current
directory, /boot/home) exists.
There seems to be a marked lack of documentation on that command (:-/),
but someone must have supplied me with the right details sometime,
because I have a working command-line.
Here is what works for me, connecting to my Pi with a shared directory
/var/shared, and a Haiku directory ~/sharedpi for it to be mounted on:
mount -t nfs4 -p "192.168.1.8:/var/shared" ~/sharedpi
Note the '-p' option. If I omit that I also get "No such file or directory".
Not sure how it all works. "mount --help" says
-p specifies parameters to pass to the file system
which isn't exactly helpful. No man page that I can find, and the
one on the Pi seems to have quite a different meaning for "-p".
Anyway, adding that will probably work for you, too. You should
probably also use a full path to the local directory as I do above.
