Description Davide Pesavento (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-04-27 15:49:55 UTC 
/etc/init.d/nfs:        type -t config 2>/dev/null 1>&2 && config /etc/exports
/etc/init.d/nfsmount:   type -t config 2>/dev/null 1>&2 && config /etc/fstab

`type -t` is a bashism, it doesn't work with dash nor zsh.
(http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/7990989775/xcu/type.html)

Possible fixes are:
(1) type config 2>/dev/null 1>&2 && config /etc/fstab
(2) command -v config 2>/dev/null 1>&2 && config /etc/fstab
(3) [ "$(command -v "config")" = "config" ] && config /etc/fstab

You got the path wrong in nfs.initd - should be /etc/exports, not /etc/fstab.
