No, my documentation explains this.

http://www.brennan.id.au/19-Network_File_System.html#nfs4

"The most important configuration setting here is the "fsid=0" option
which tells the server that this is the pseudofilesystem and that all
other directories are contained within this one"

NFS vers 3 and 4 are completely different, particularly on the
server's export side. The fsid=0 option establishes the initial
pseudofilesystem, without that all NFS4 exports will fail.

You can not use NFS3 default options for NFS4 and expect it to work.

I'm glad you got it going.

Cheers,
Miles
