Sounds like PEBKAC, you provided no information whatsoever, for examxple /etc/exports on the server would be good - my bet is you don't have -maproot=root specified. Maybe learn about setting up NFS a little, eg: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/network-nfs.html or read the manpages... Obviously nothing to do w/ OpenBSD... strange you posted here, really.
