Steve,
I would suspect this is either a result of not using a sufficiently recent
glibc, or a configuration error on your machine---because the server *can*
be built with glibc; I'm using on this Alpha I'm typing on.
I can't give you any more specific details, but you could, if you wished,
look at the diffs for the Debian packages I've used, specifically the ones
for glibc and netstd (which include the userland nfs server). You can find
them at:
ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/hamm/hamm/source/{libs/glibc_2.0.7pre1-4.diff.gz,net/netstd_3.07-1.diff.gz}
I hope this helps.
Mike.
