I don't have sparc so I can't really say what is going on there. =
However,
I do have a comment. REALLY IMPORTANT Make sure you have a
mountd that has the security hole fixed... perhaps RH7.2 has the
fixed mountd, but I got bit a month ago by this 'well known' security
issue. And as a note, some versions of SSHD have a security problem
as well...

However, I have gotten a RH 7.1 linux to act as tftpboot and NFS root
server for my NetBSD board, although I may have been using a
downloaded-from-the-consortium dhcpd source set...

As it is I have found using my laptop for both NetBSD development
and NFS root exporting allows me to go anywhere... so I've not continued
to use the linux box for NetBSD work.
