UPDATE: NFS mount points

As per request from some I will be more specific. Here is the content of my
/etc/exports file on system named town:
/.nsr_clone -ro country
 
On my system named country, I issue this command
# mount -t nfs town:/.nsr_clone /nsr_clone
 
and I get the error:
town:/.nsr_clone on /nsr_clone: device busy
 
No process is using /.nsr_clone on town, no other users are on either system
and I am not in either directory when trying to mount. Still very confusing
though.

Thanks to DunnAD@NSWC.NAVY.MIL , Mark Centifonti, Charles Ballowe, Selden E.
Ball for their responses so far, I stopped all proceses that were using the
filesystem on the host system and tried to re-mount but I got the same
error. Could this error be as a result of the way the client and server
were set up?
 
TIA,

Admins,

        I am trying to NFS mount a file system on a 5.1 pk #3 system, the
server is a 5.1 system as well. When I isssue # mount -t nfs
server:/filesystem /filesystem and I get the following error:
server:/filesystem on /filesystem: device busy. I set both the client and
the server up through sysman but this error seems strange. Any ideas on how
to get this to mount.

TIA,
