I have a machine running NetBSD and I want to make one of the directories 
available for mounting from a PC connected through the network.

How should I go about? (Yes, I know that this really is a FAQ, but I have
tried all the "standard" methodes without any luck.)

I thought all that was needed was an entry in the /etc/exports and a running
nfsd, but when I try to run the daemon it just ends without any messages
when I start it (that is, it doesn't show up in the ps uxa list afterwards.)

Any help (preferrably by E-mail) will be appreciated!
