authpf is not a shell

Hi
I'm using authfp to secure an NFS server (authpf required before
mount).
This works when I use it interactively, but not when I try to
background
the SSH session (ports stay closed).
I want to use this in a shell script. Something like this:
ssh -fN nas_u...@puffy.home.ctors.net
SSH_SESSION=$!
sudo mount -t nfs puffy.home.ctors.net:/home/nas ~/nas
# copy files ...
sudo umount ~/nas
kill $SSH_SESSION
The SSH command is in the ps output and in netstat on both sides
(client
and server) but the mount won't work (timeout) because the firewall is
not
changed by authpf.
I compared ssh -vvv output from the regular ssh session with the
background
ssh and see that they are identical until "Authenticated to
puffy.home.ctors.net". After that line I see that the regular session
prints stuff about "ignoring env ..." and the background one prints
"forking to background". When the sessions are closed they both print
that
data was transfered (send/receive) etc.
Is this something that can work and if so, what am I doing wrong of how
do
I debug this any further? I'm stuck. :-)
Thanks,
