Aaarrgh! It's the firewall. But the explanation is beyond me.

I disabled the server firewall and the client mounted the drives correctly.
I re-enabled the firewall (without making any changes to it) and the client
continued to re-mount the drives correctly.

So the problem has been solved for the time being without my understanding
the solution, which is not the most satisfactory outcome.

I'd like to thank you very much for your help and patience, without which I
might have given up!
