http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=29968&highlight=nfsd Found this which I think says it all at the conclusion. March 30th, 2012 Received some information from the FreeBSD mailing list and apparently exporting NFS from an jailed environment is not possible. For those who have "managed" (by heavy tweaking of sysctl.conf) to export the NFS probably have these concerns: 1) Security may have been compromised on their own jails as a result of tweaks and 2) Even if you manage to export the NFS share under such strained boundary conditions, it may cause problems in some of the application's you would like to use (eg: tinderbox) finally, 3) If you try to use net/unfs3 and succeed to export NFS, this will not have a very fast (ro) transport rate and will have many (rw) speed limitations. My personal conclusion is to wait until the default kernel version of nfs is updated to be jail-friendly before I try using nfs in jails.
