I had this problem show up after an update, on two differant servers.  I'm not 
sure which update did it, because I update often, but reboots are few and far 
between.  Anyway, after doing a major reorganizing of file systems (I got 
some SCSI drives, and migrated from single IDE to RAIDED SCSI), I rebooted my 
server.

My clients started getting this permission denied error.  I thought I somehow 
screwed up permissions or trashed some file in moving file systems, but 
couldn't find anything.

What I ended up having to do is manually mounting sunrpc and nfsd.  This used 
to happen magically before, but something somewhere broke.  This is what 
mount says:

	nfsd on /proc/fs/nfsd type nfsd (rw)
	sunrpc on /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs type rpc_pipefs (rw)

I don't have my fstab here, but this should give you a hint.  Also, at the 
time the problem showed up, I would get an error when booting the server 
relating to NFS4.  Don't recall the message, but I think it mentioned the 
rpc_pipefs, which was a hint that took me to the mounts.
