Are you using all of the RPMs straight from the redhat distro? If so, is
your error coming from /etc/rc.d/init.d/nfs? The standard way to start it
is /etc/rc.d/init.d/nfs start. You can look at that script to see what
it's doing. If you aren't already, you should try starting it that way... 

You can use ntsysv to see if nfs is running at boot.

I've never had to do anything more than create an entry in /etc/exports,
and make sure nfs is running, assuming all of the RPMS are there:

knfsd
knfsd-clients
portmap

Those are the only ones I can think of...

Other things to watch out for: nfs uses hosts.allow and hosts.deny, so you
have to have access to it in there. Also look for any errors in your log
about nfs...
