Can someone perhaps help me?

I have setup an NFS server on the dom0, as follows:

cat /etc/exports
/bck 192.168.10.0/24(rw)


tail -f /var/log/messages
Mar  7 23:04:13 venus kernel: nfsd: last server has exited
Mar  7 23:04:13 venus kernel: nfsd: unexporting all filesystems
Mar  7 23:04:13 venus kernel: RPC: failed to contact portmap (errno -5).
Mar  7 23:04:13 venus kernel: NFSD: Using /var/lib/nfs/v4recovery as the 
NFSv4 state recovery directory
Mar  7 23:04:13 venus kernel: NFSD: starting 90-second grace period
Mar  7 23:04:14 venus mountd[10383]: authenticated mount request from 
192.168.10.11:834 for /bck (/bck)
Mar  7 23:05:27 venus mountd[10383]: authenticated mount request from 
192.168.10.11:977 for /bck (/bck)

So it looks if all is well, but on the client side, I get this:
root@vps01 [~]# mount 192.168.10.10:/bck /bck
mount.nfs: Input/output error
