Which version of FreeBSD are you running?
In 2.0.5 you can edit (if not done in the installation dialog)
/etc/sysconfig and enable nfsserver=YES, nfsclient=YES
and things should be set up automatically.
Don't forget to edit /etc/exports to contain the
filesystems you want to export and if you want to
mount any other nfs servers put that mount into
/etc/fstab
like:

host:/usr/local          /usr/local nfs rw,bg
