Excuse the odd typo in the previous post - actually the linuxhomenetworking
link that google finds at 
http://www.linuxhomenetworking.com/wiki/index.php/Quick_HOWTO_:_Ch29_:_Remote_Disk_Access_with_NFS

is quite a good guide but does not mention selinux... perhaps selinux works
so transparently now that it does not need mentioning!
