This isn't Linux. NFS is part of the standard FreeBSD install. You don't
have to add anything.

Look in /etc/sysconfig or /etc /etc/rc.conf depending on if you're
using 2.2.1 and prior or 2.2.2 respectively. There are variables
that you need to change to enable NFS.

Or you could just start nfsiod manually.
