[Lustre-discuss] exporting lustre over nfs to osx

[Adeyemi Adesanya]

I would try using 'mount' from the command line because you can try  
various options. The '-P' (resvport) option may be required to force  
the client to connect using a reserved port number. You will need to  
run 'mount' as root in order to use this option.

check the man pages for mount and mount_nfs on your mac.
