Hmm, weird. udp mounts work here for me (except NFSv4, where tcp is
required, but you'd only get that if you had used "-o nfsv4" in your
mount).

I'll take another look at mount_nfs.c too (already caught a problem I
introduced in mountd.c). Maybe I unintentionally changed one of the
defaults. (I think the default is supposed to be nfsv3,tcp but I'll look.)

For udp to work, nfsd must have the "-u" argument. That might be why it
wouldn't work? (Still doesn't explain why the default was udp and not
tcp.)

Anyhow, thanks for doing the testing and I'll email again if I find
that I've screwed up the defaults for mount_nfs too. (Is that a
"big pointy hat"?:-)
