  You might have the actual file ownership and permissions
  set so you can't access them.
  What user (and user ID) are you using on each machine?
  What are the permissions on the files/directories?

Files on the server are set to my username and /users.
Most files are in the 0755 mode.
From my Basiclinux on which I use root/root  the files I tries to 
copy also are in the 0755 mode.
Is there something I should have set different?

Am now studying the man pages for exports.  Hope to find some 
useful info there.
