Your post is kind of unclear to me on who has mounted what. Please give some details about the the OS of both client and server, configuration in exports file, the results of "showmount -a host", the error messages, etc common troubleshooting hints. Right now I can only guess what OSes are using the client and the server.

Thanks sysgate for quick help,

nfs server is AIX os and nfs client is Linux

I am mounting /test file system on 2 linux box,

during sharing file system i have given rw rights to both clients, but after mounting , i have issue share command on AIX box it is showing me only single linux box , after some time i have observed I am getting read rights on one linux box and rw rights on second linux box.

Thanks below are details of /etc/exports

Using IBM AIX server 5.3 for sharing file system

/test -sec=sys:krb5p:krb5i:krb5:dh,rw=172.16.16.16,access=172.16.16.16,root=172.16.16.16
/test -dsec=sys:krb5p:krb5i:krb5:dh,rw=172.16.16.17,access=172.16.16.17,root=172.16.16.17

but when giving share command it is showing single host name

/test -sec=sys:krb5p:krb5i:krb5:dh,rw=172.16.16.16,access=172.16.16.16,root=172.16.16.16

for mouting using Linux box (4)

why did you write two of config to "/test" in the "/etc/exports" ?

try this :

/test -sec=sys:krb5p:krb5i:krb5:dh,rw=172.16.16.16:172.16.16.17,access=172.16.16.16:172.16.16.17,root=172.16.16.16:172.16.16.17
