Post subject:  NFS file transfer problems

I have R5D1 installed and want to be able to transfer files to it via NFS or be logged into it and grab get files vis NFS. I have one Linux box in my home that stores all videos, pictures and music for my entire family. It's then up to me to move these files to the Myth box. I've done this in the past with no problems and just can't figure out what is different now. As I write this I am doing the transfer via Samba but that is not my prefered method. Here is my current status, maybe more than I should have done but I have been at this for MANY hours:
Firewall is disabled on my server, don't know about Myth box, it's at what ever is default.
Myth box is exporting /myth *(rw)
Home server is exporting /vault *(sync,insecure,rw) note: all the files I want are strored in /vault
I have created a mythtv user on my home server and included mythtv user in the group users, group users are listed as the group for all my /vault files and have rwx permissions.
I have currently set chmod to 777 on both mythtv box and home server to try to remidy this problem.
Both boxes have been rebooted and I have mounted the nfs shares on both with no problem, I can see the directories of both nfs shares (both: i've tried this from Myth box to server and server to Myth box) yet I can not cd into any of the listed directories, I get a permission denied response. I don't see how this can be with no firewall, export to all, and 777 permissions. Can anyone help me out here?

Thanks,
