Just remove the knfsd rpms, install the latest user-space nfs. I did it on
RHL 6.0 with a 2.2.12/13 kernel, and run the same user-space nfs nfs on
RHL 5.0 with kernel 2.2.13.
This is an extract from kernel 2.2.13
============================
NFS
===
The user-land 2.2beta40 release:
ftp://ftp.mathematik.th-darmstadt.de/pub/linux/okir/dontuse/nfs-server-2.2b
eta40.tar.gz
ftp://linux.nrao.edu/mirrors/fb0429.mathematik.th-darmstadt.de/pub/linux/ok
ir/dontuse/nfs-server
-2.2beta40.tar.gz
============================
I thought we were supposed to use a later one what this; there is at least
one later.
It's available as rpms; if you can't see one that's clearly built for
glibc 2.1 I suggest you get the src.rpm and rebuild it.
