The problem isn't with the client obtaining the NFS server port.  The
problem is that when the connection comes in, the NFS server looks at the
client port number, finds it to be "insecure" (> 1023) and rejects the
connection.  Disabling that check is the right thing to do as long as you
require authentication on the mount (or use PC NFS).
