Both specified, as well as
   rpcbind_enable="YES"

rpcbind, mountd, and nfsuserd are all running, but nfsd is not running.

Only warning I see on a system reboot is:
   nfsd: can't open /var/db/nfs-stablerestart

Creating this file and then rebooting the system seems to get things working.

This file certainly wasn't required by the old nfsd.
Should this file be created by /etc/rc.d/nfsserver at boot time (if it doesn't 
exist)?
Or should it be created by installworld?
