Since 'mountcritremote' is in the REQUIRE line of 'nfsserver', that would create 
a loop. I think in your case though you can savely replace the 'mountcritremote'
requirement in nfsserver by 'mountcritlocal'. Then you can add nfsserver to 
the REQUIRE line in `mountcritremote'

BTW, this obviously won't work if you plan to re-export remote nfs-shares
