There isn't much to setting up a simple NFS fileserver and client mount.  Set
up /etc/exports on the server (this assumes your client is 192.168.0.3)

/whatever/where-ever/ 192.168.0.3(rw)

Start the nfs service.  Create a mount point on the client

"mkdir /mnt/fileserver"

 then mount the fileserver there. 

"mount fileserver:/whatever/where-ever/ /mnt/fileserver"
