NFS issues

Ok, after deciding to move away from using the WarNFS daemon on my Win2k PC
(it was very buggy) I decided to move the NFS duties over to the Linux box
(SUSE 7.1) that is already doing the SAMBA duties. 
The basic issue is that despite the fact that I have edited the /etc/exports
file on the SUSE box to reflect the fact that the originating IP of the Tivo
(192.168.0.110 in this case) should be permitted RW access to the /tmp/tivo
folder on the SUSE (192.168.0.71) box. 
I then load the NFS daemon on the Tivo, and then create a directory under
/var/tmp on the tivo called streams. 
I then proceed to mount /tmp/tivo on the SUSE box as /var/tmp/streams on the
TIVO: 
mount 192.168.0.71:/tmp/tivo /var/tmp/streams 
The mount command works, and I can do an ls on it to see it is empty. Then I
issue a mkdir command to test if it is truly RW, and it fails every time: 
bash-2.02# mkdir a
mkdir: cannot make directory `a': Read-only file system 
So, Why does this happen? I have triple-checked the SUSE box to make sure
that the /etc/exports file is correct, and does in fact make that dir
specified is in fact RW, and it is. 
Anyone have any idea why this is?? 
Thanks
