No. Using the Linux box as an NFS server, OS X as the client, OS X fails
to mount the server correctly. I just did it again to refresh my memory.
It mounts, but then any attempt to access that directory (beyond cd'ing
into it) gives an "Operation not permitted" error. I'm doing this as
root, of course.

I had this problem as well.. You have to use the -P and -U flags with mount_nfs (I think... I'm away from my OSX machine) It has something to do with using non-privilaged ports. My problem was with an OpenBSD server, though.

Let me know if that doesn't help, and I'll look up the exact command I used to fix it.
