Edit /etc/exports and make certain the nfs service is running. It's very fast. I've been able to serve data at nearly 100MB/sec on a Gigabit connection with a 2.6 kernel. NFS bad: It's insecure. Only run it on a network that is firewalled. Though w/ NFS4 there are ways to lock it down. I haven't tried those yet.
