hosts.allow hosts.deny and nfs



I'm trying to let only one host ( named spud ) to mount nfs
on my linux.

in linux i have hosts.allow:

ALL : spud

and hosts.deny :

ALL : ALL

if i remove the line in hosts.deny i can be accessed from anywhere
but if i leave it there, i cant mount linux's nfs on spud.

what did i do wrong ?
( i know tcpd is not involved in nfs, but portmap
  also reads hosts.allow and hosts.deny )

thanks
