because some filesystems are less equal than other, exporting vfat for
example is not a good idea, I'm not totally up to date on the NFS scene
I'm on the mailing lists still, and hear all the issues...

The howto is quite good..
http://nfs.sourceforge.net/nfs-howto/

you might also want to see if starting NFS support before bringing up the
interface so reset for closed ports don't get sent .. (not sure where I
heard this it could be hearsay and conjecture..
