1 - unmount and unshare the folder (just to start afresh)
2 - on the server side:
Code:
share -F nfs -o rw=machine2 /rootfolder

3 - on the client side:
Code:
mount -F nfs -o rw machine1:/rootfolder /mountpoint

Note: assuming machine1 and machine2 are in the /etc/hosts file
Note: userid (not username) on server and client side should be the same. Since you are share and accessing as root (UID=0), it shouldnot be a problem.
Thanks, but that does not solve my problem, still deny writing from machine2.

Then, What should I do now?

NAME

       install-solaris - install the Solaris operating system

SYNOPSIS

       install-solaris

       install-solaris	invokes  the  Solaris  Install	program. Depending on graphical capability and available memory at the time of invocation,
       install-solaris invokes either a text-based installer or a graphical installer.

       The following minimum requirements for physical memory dictate which features are available during installation:

       For SPARC machines:

       128 MB

	   Minimum physical memory for all installation types

       128 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for windowing system

       384 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for graphical-based installation

       For x86 machines:

       256 MB

	   Minimum physical memory for all installation types

       256 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for windowing system

       512 MB

       In some cases, even if the minimum physical memory is present, available virtual memory after system startup can limit the number  of  fea-
       tures available.
