Hmmm, looks better than standard NFS setup and having to open up
firewall rules too far ... maybe this could be made the standard setup?
And then the firewall config tool could have a checkbox for NFS?

- From rpc.statd(8):
" -n, --name name
specify a name for rpc.statd to use as the local hostname. By
default, rpc.statd will call gethostname(2) to get the local
hostname. Specifying a local hostname may be useful for machines
with more than one interfaces."
Since it only sources configs from /etc/sysconfig/network, I guess it
must be set there, but it would be logical to have all NFS settings in
one file.
