Sometimes when you try to mount file system (NFS) you will get the following Error:

#mount -o rw server1:/dir /bk
mount: 1831-008 giving up on:
server1:/dir
vmount: Operation not permitted.

to solve this problem, try to change the following network parameter on the client side

#nfso -o nfs_use_reserved_ports=1
Setting nfs_use_reserved_ports to 1
