I don't remember the exact names, but it is important that you NFS file
system supports file locking.
Inn addition to the nfs-daemon, you should also have a lock daemon. Read
some NFS stuff on the net. I think you should look for rpc.statd and/or
rpc.lockd
Without these daemons, subversion won't work on NFS share.
