nfsstat -m

Will show you the NFS version being used

Edit the opensolaris servers "/etc/inet/nfs" file to only allow NFS3

# Sets the maximum version of the NFS protocol that will be registered
# and offered by the server.  The default is 4.
#NFS_SERVER_VERSMAX=4
NFS_SERVER_VERSMAX=3                   <= add this line

You may need to restart the service

svcadm restart svc:/network/nfs/server:default

I do not know the answers to your other questions
