I'm prety sure you want at least:
nfs_server=YES
in there. I'm no expert, but I got NFS working awhile ago, after adding
these things. I don't remember if all of them are strictly necessary, but
I think they all get used:
# nfs
lockd=YES
statd=YES
mountd=YES
nfs_server=YES
nfsd=YES
rpcbind=YES
You may want to try them. Also, I found the commands 'nfsstat' and
'showmount' useful.
