Client NFS mounting on boot problem / RHEL4

I've got some NFS mount points defined in /etc/fstab, and they are not mounting at system boot. However, once the system is up, issuing a "mount -a" gives me the mounts.

Not a DNS issue, my system is able to recognize the hostname of the NFS mounts. I even tried using the IP address.

I also tried putting a 60 second "sleep" in /etc/init.d/network based on (http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/FAQ_43_7119.shtm)

I turned the "netfs" service on, rebooted, and the mounting is working.
