The OS X firewall dos not appear to be a factor. Actually it works
just fine when I turn off the firewall on the CentOS end.

Could it be that even when I am trying to mount over the TCP the NFS
client on the Mac OS X side still tried to connect to some UDP port? I
am asking that because everyone else mounts just fine with the
firewall up on the server end.
