your exports on the server says,
/iso 	192.168.1.52

which is giving the ip 192.168.1.52 access to your NFS share, but i'm 
guessing that's not what you want.  You want to list the client's ip so 
that,

/iso 	clientip(rw)

will give nfs access to the client.  You'll also want to make sure you 
have the service 'portmap' running as this is necessary for NFS RPC 
service.  Finally, you'll want to make sure port 111 is open on your 
firewall (both tcp and udp)
