I run Shorewall on a system that serves up filesystems as NFSv4.  Here
are the rules I use:

ACCEPT  loc     $FW             tcp     111
ACCEPT  loc     $FW             udp     111
ACCEPT  loc     $FW             tcp     2049
ACCEPT  loc     $FW             udp     2049
ACCEPT  loc     $FW             tcp     32765:32769
ACCEPT  loc     $FW             udp     32765:32769

In /etc/default/nfs-kernel-server, I have:
RPCMOUNTDOPTS="-p 32767"

In /etc/default/nfs-common, I have:
STATDOPTS="--port 32765 --outgoing-port 32766"

I think the key is *telling* the services what ports to use.  Otherwise,
they use random ports and traffic will probably not be allowed through.
