Well, NFS server starts and  runs when I use nfs-utils v.1.0.1 with kerne=
l 2.6 (BTW, I compiled nfs-utils without nfsv4 support).
But it runs so slowly and produces tons of errors...
I see two potencial sources for this problem:
- bugs in nfs kernel code in my kernel version (2.6.12)
- interoperability problems between old nfs-utils and new kernel
