Dunno what you are doing wrong, but I use NFS all the time, for
general file sharing, backup and development on many different linux boxes,
linux versions, and on my ts7200 (Linux 2.4.26-ts6).
here's how my work directory is mounted on the ts7200...
iridium.wf32df:/home/export/work on /mnt/nfs type nfs
(rw,noatime,v3,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,hard,udp,lock,addr=iridium.wf32df)
here's the /etc/exports line for this on the iridium machine...
/home/export/work sc(rw,no_root_squash,insecure,no_subtree_check)
It just works.
You do seem to get a lot of problems.
