I think I have bad news. I don't think there is an rpc.statd (same for
rpc.lockd) for Linux. The NFS server with Linux doesn't provide nor require
it. I remember reading some thread on one of the kernel mailing lists about
it. I have NFS mounted between NetBSD and Linux without problems. I think
the rpc.statd and rpc.lockd are part of the Sun NFS implementation (and
other SVR4's) and not provided on BSD or Linux NFS.
