 The NFS server is launched using '''/etc/rc.d/rc.nfsd'''. Make this script executable so as to use it on every boot. You can also '''start''' it to test it immediately. The NFS client is launched using '''/etc/rc.d/rc.rpc''' and affords using NFS mount points from other NFS servers. Make this script executable if you want to use it and have it started on every reboot. This can be handy to cross-test NFS machines. Otherwise it should not be necessary.
