I've seen this.  In my case, running exportfs showed me the problem
and subsequently running exportfs -a solved it (and exportfs showed
more exports).  I'm not where I can get into that server at the
moment, but IIRC it reached its limit on exports or forgot some
exports or something.  This may or may not have been your problem, but
when you get permission denied errors from the server (according to
the client), then the server is usually the place to start.
