Is statd running on the server? The in-kernel statd has been replaced by
userspace statd.

rpc.statd on client should have be started by mount.nfs when a nfs
filesystem is mounted. Is this not happening for some reason or do you
see any errors in syslog?

Are you using 11.1 betas? I know of a problem where non-root user mounts
fail to start rpc.statd in betas that got fixed later:

http://marc.info/?l=linux-nfs&m=122748525624094&w=2

Is the problem seen only recently (after updating to net-next)?

Thanks,
