	mount -o -P machinename:/dir1/subdir /wherever/blah

is the correct command.  Also, you might want to use NFSv3 together
with the Sun, this makes:

	mount -o -3,-P machinename:/dir1/subdir /wherever/blah

Now it should be obvious what to put into your fstab :)

machinename:/dir1/subdir /wherever/blah   nfs  rw,-3,-P  0 0
