You mean you want the machine with two NICs to act as an NFS server,
but only have the NFS server daemon listen to one of the NICs? No,
you can't do that...NFS listens on all network devices.
You CAN, however, restrict access to one of the NICs via iptables or
by setting up the exports file to only permit connections from a limited
set of IP addresses, and make sure you DON'T have ipforward set.
