This is should not be the case with IC.  The only time you should need
to do an NFS mounted catalog is when you are trying to do load balancing
and need files to be shared across servers.  You actually are probably
complicating manners by using an NFS mounted area for storing the
catalogs.  We use the default tar ball install and all of our catalogs
are installed into the user's home directory on a non nfs mounted
partition.
