Did you specify both of these in rc.conf?
nfs_server_enable="YES"
nfsv4_server_enable="YES"

You need to specify both of them (and nfsuserd="YES" if you going to use
NFSv4). See "man nfsv4" for more.

If you did specify both, then do a "ps axHl" to see what didn't start up.
There should be:
rpcbind
mountd
nfsd

and for NFSv4 to work
nfsuserd

You can also look in /var/log/messages to see if any of the daemons
are complaining about something.
