Done. I opened: Bug#437525: nfs-kernel-server: Kernel prints "RPC: failed to contact portmap (errno -5)" In my case, portmap was bound to the loopback address in /etc/default/portmap. Removing this option allowed me to do the remote mount. I don't know if #437525 is actually a bug, but at least the message is misleading and it's ok to have it documented somewhere.
