Did you restart nfs-kernel-server on the server after configuring
/etc/exports?  Is nfs-common installed on the client?  Do you see any
additional messages in /var/log/syslog on either machine?  Are you using
a stock kernel or a custom kernel?  Are you mounting as root or some
other person?  Finally, I assume /mnt/mp3s exist?
