mount.nfs: No such device

I have setup nfs between Ubuntu and Arch linux. First beeing a server an later a client. When I try to mount with:

mount -t nfs 192.168.0.196:/media/disk movies

The error is mount.nfs: No such device

Is this server or client side problem.

Look under "Common NFS Errors"

I'm guessing you haven't installed nfs-utils and portmap on the client. Or you haven't started them. In the right order (portmap, then nfslock - you don't need to start nfsd on the client)
