I tried bringing up NFS between two NetBSD 1.2 boxes.  When I do a 
"showmount -e" it says the file is exported properly but if I try to 
mount it all I get is a really long wait and eventually a "NFS Server
not responding" message.  And there appears to be no way to kill the 
mount_nfs command at this point either requiring that the machine be
rebooted to clear it.  Is there something beyond the setting in netstart
needed to start NFS??
