I've downloaded today the sun-rpc + nfs-server packages and tried to play 
a little bit with it. It works ok so far (very simple tests) but the 
included nfs-server-config script wont work on my system.

Attached is a modified nfs-server-config script which works fine.

I've made the following changes:

* Use /dev/null instead of /dev/nul
* Fix the order of redirection so that the output of cygrunsrv is not 
  shown
* Quote the word which indicates the end of the _here_document which
  is used to create /etc/exports

I don't understand very well why the last change was necessary but it 
fixed the following problem:

/usr/bin/nfs-server-config: 69: Syntax error: EOF in backquote substitution

On my machine /bin/sh is ash as Cygwin installs it.
