it seems that I can't mount any nfs from a domU

root@domU:~# mount not_a_xen_box:/home mntpnt/
mount: unknown filesystem type 'nfs'

I can however mount something shared from the domU

not_a_xen_box:~# mount domU:/home mntpnt/
ok!
It seems that the domU is serving ok

So my problem is the domU nfs client.
is this a known issue?
