None seem to make any difference to the results I'm seeing so far -- still the same old "svc: failed to register lockdv1 RPC service (errno 13)." error.
Also, iptables has been completely disabled so there shouldn't be anything at the network layer blocking it. It's been suggested that their may be a bug in the version of nfs-common I'm using. I have version 1:1.2.2-4 installed and it appears, at least according to http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=nfs-common, that this same version is also in stable. So I guess my next question is: has anyone had luck running an nfs server on any system since lenny? If so, what versions of the 3 (portmap, nfs-common, and nfs-kernel-server) are you running and with what kind of configuration? Thanks for all the support so far.
