Could you try:
mount -t nfs 10.20.30.5:/export /mnt/hd

If that doesn't work, is there a firewall on your DSL box?

A couple of links if you want to use a firewall:

Try starting all three of these on the client (DSL) side.

sudo portmap
sudo rpc.statd
sudo rpc.lockd

Are you sure of your Suse server setup?
Can you use nfs from another client machine to connect with Suse?

I don't think there is any issue with DSL client NFS.
I was able to use DSL NFS client to mount NFS exported dirs on my RedHat server. No issue at all. And, btw, only portmap is needed on the client, DSL, side.

I am not familiar with your server side setup. But maybe that is Suse which I am not at all familiar.

Usually my allow and deny files are by service type, i.e, portmap lockd mountd statd rquotad

Your shows only http-rman: ?
Your export file shows an /export directory. Do you have such a directory off of your / on Suse machine?

What does...

cat /proc/fs/nfs/exports

show?
