I'm trying to set up LTSP on a Debian 3.0 system. NFS is working. I can
mount a directory from the server to my local desktop. But when I boot
up the client I get an NFS mount error for /opt/ltsp/i386. Here's the
message:

(null)mount: nfsmount failed: Bad file number
NFS: mount program didn't pass remote address!
mount: Mounting 10.5.107.20:/opt/ltsp/i386 on /mnt failed: Invalid
argument.

I ran into the same issue yesterday on a RedHat server but I figured out
I had a wrong broadcast address in my dhcpd.conf file. The correct one
is in my Debian server's dhcpd.conf file. So I'm at a loss.

Here's my dhcpd.conf file:
#ddns-update-style ad-hoc;

default-lease-time           21600;
max-lease-time               21600;
 
option subnet-mask           255.255.255.0;
option broadcast-address     10.5.107.255;
option routers               10.5.107.1;
option domain-name-servers   10.1.1.2;
option root-path             "10.5.107.20:/opt/ltsp/i386";
authoritative;

shared-network Workstations {
        subnet 10.5.112.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
            option broadcast-address 10.5.112.255;
            option routers           10.5.112.1;
        }
}

group {
     use-host-decl-names    on;
     host ws001 {
         hardware ethernet   00:50:04:1c:cf:46;
         fixed-address       10.5.112.55;
         filename            "/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.22-ltsp-1";
     }
     host ws002 {
         hardware ethernet   00:50:da:77:a7:b4;
         fixed-address       10.5.112.56;
         filename            "/lts/2.4.22-ltsp-1/pxelinux.0";
     }
}

Here's my /etc/exports file:

/opt/ltsp/i386                  10.5.112.0/255.255.255.0(ro,no_root_squash,sync)
/var/opt/ltsp/swapfiles         10.5.112.0/255.255.255.0(rw,no_root_squash,async)

And here's my hosts.allow file:
bootpd:    0.0.0.0
in.tftpd:  ALL : ALLOW
portmap:   ALL : ALLOW
mountd:    ALL : ALLOW
