Probably ;-)

Just a guess, you're using Redhat 6.0 or 6.1, with the knfsd.
DOESN'T work for me. There is a big problem in that distribution with NFS.
This server announce itself as a NFS3 server, but it isn't :-(

you can change that, if you start the mountd like "mountd --no-nfs-version
3"
(start mountd is somewhere in /etc/rc.d/init.d/nfs ...)

At least, you get rid of the "svc: unknown version message" ;-)

cheers,
