Thanks for the suggestion, however, the NFS server and client can access each other without problems. When I do the 'host x.x.x.x' I get the host name back, when I do 'host server-2' from server-1 (which is the NFS server), I get the correct IP back. The same can be said reversely from the client server (server-2).
I don't know why there is the permission problem as I tested scp from both servers to the other server and into the correct directory without problems.
Does anyone know whether the shared directory needs to be owned by another user other than root? (but I did give the directory a recursive chmod to 777 just for testing purposes).
Furthermore, does anyone know whether I need to identify the NFS client (server-2) in any of the configurations on the NFS server (server-1)?
