Description man 1999-08-27 13:16:42 UTC 
executing an /etc/rc.d/init.d/nfs reload  calls
/usr/sbin/exportfs. this is fine, but the default behavior
for exportfs is just to print the current setup, not to
reload.

to do this, just change the line to be

/usr/sbin/exportfs -r

which syncs the running daemons with the /etc/exports file.

man exportfs for more info

This is already fixed in knfsd-1.4.7-1.
