mountd is actually okay, although my problem was that the
loopback lo0 interface did not get started up at boot time.

The reason was that the gethostname reslover, I have
"domain ece.uci.edu" in /etc/resolv.conf.  That should search ece.uci.edu
then uci.edu, as the man page says and 2.1.5R did.  However,
it now only searches ece.uci.edu.  Did someone change the behavior
and if so, why?

As a result, localhost.uci.edu was not being found and the lo0 interface
not ifconfiged.  Is mountd suppose to hang if loopback not up?  Why?
