It listens tcp:2049 - it's nfsv4. It does not - it's nfsv3.

First, nobody mounts nfs like you do. It's done differently. Second, they give you automounter which simplifies things. Third, assuming 'robin' is a hostname, and you're using ipv4: sudo mount -t nfs -o soft,tcp robin:/znfs/edrv /mnt Last, but not least - https://wiki.debian.org/NFS Reco
