I suppose I should be paying closer attention, but when I saw a message 
about nfs running on port 22, I thought, "what the !#$#, that's the ssh 
port.  nfs uses a completely different port(just looked, it's 2049)" 
Anyway, abbreviating nearlyfreespeech as NFS, and then talking about 
TCP/IP port numbers provides ample room for confusion.
