If you don't want to build your own kernel, then there are a couple of
things you could do:
Upgrade to RedHat 7.2 - which has a 2.4.X kernel plus everything else
you need to use NFSv3.
If you can't upgrade to RedHat 7.2, then the latest RedHat update kernel
for RedHat 7.0 is 2.2.19-7.0.15. I have no idea if this kernel does
support NFSv3, but I guess it does. (RedHat make a number of
additions/modifications to a standard kernel - the number after the '-'
is added by RedHat and probably means something like the 15th build of a
RH kernel based on 2.2.19 for RH 7.0). Download from:
ftp://updates.redhat.com/7.0/en/os/i686/
The RedHat support site should have instructions on how to upgrade a RH
kernel.
You will probably still have to update the nfs-utils (and mount?) as per
the FAQ.
