Hi

I am trying to turn on NFS serving on a running production machine that 
I cannot reboot right now.

I run, as root

# nfsd -u -t -n 4
# mountd -r


Clients cannot mount, and after several minutes, mountd dies and gives 
the message in the system log

mountd[53312]: can't register mount


What exactly does this mean?

Could it be an artifact from being at runlevel 3?

Thanks
Chad
