In the meantime I discovered this in syslog: Mar 30 09:57:05 hostname nfs-kernel-server[494]: Not starting: portmapper is not running ... (warning). Any ideas what to look for for why rpcbind and/or portmapper and/or 'whatever else' is not starting on boot? Most articles I've read on setting up nfs server make it sound like it should just work, and that has indeed been my experience on other systems, but on the RPi something seems to be missing or misconfigured.
