Yeah, that was intentional. Sorry about my words not matching what is
actually happening - although this doesn't really change the problem :)

While it's starting up:
svc:/network/nfs/server:default (NFS server)
State: offline since Thu Apr 09 20:14:37 2009
Reason: Start method is running.
See: http://sun.com/msg/SMF-8000-C4
See: man -M /usr/share/man -s 1M nfsd
See: /var/svc/log/network-nfs-server:default.log
Impact: This service is not running.
Then it says:
svc:/network/nfs/server:default (NFS server)
State: online since Thu Apr 09 20:19:10 2009
See: man -M /usr/share/man -s 1M nfsd
See: /var/svc/log/network-nfs-server:default.log
Impact: None.
And when the stop method finishes (according to the log)
svc:/network/nfs/server:default (NFS server)
State: disabled since Thu Apr 09 20:22:34 2009
Reason: Temporarily disabled by an administrator.
See: http://sun.com/msg/SMF-8000-1S
See: man -M /usr/share/man -s 1M nfsd
See: /var/svc/log/network-nfs-server:default.log
Impact: This service is not running.

svcs -xv is empty, and rpcbind is on:

Cool, thanks. Good to know :)

Same thing. It shares it, starts nfs/server, and then immediately
disables it again.

Right. For some reason zfs share and share -F nfs aren't sharing
anything. How can I got about fixing this?
Thanks,
