Shouldn't that read:

all:127.0.0.1
all:192.161.1./255.255.255.0
portmap:192.161.1.0/255.255.255.0

As long as the two sambas are of the same or close version numbers and
compiled with the same directory configuration... yes.

/public \

You're not stating any options in the exported resources, are you sure the
defaults are correct?

On my private lan, my server has:

#/etc/exports
#
/ spyro(rw,no_root_squash,insecure)
/ sid(rw,no_root_squash,insecure)

This allows user sid and spyro to nfs mount the server root with no security.

Cheers and good luck.
