I have a new LXC container with Alpine. It is not unprivileged, and with NFS and SMB/CIFS features enabled.
I installed the server with apk add nfs-utils and edited the exports file.

When I run rc-service nfs start, it fails with the following error:
Code:
fileserver:~# rc-service nfs start
 * Starting NFS statd ... * start-stop-daemon: failed to start `/sbin/rpc.statd'
 * Failed to start NFS statd
                                                               [ !! ]
 * ERROR: rpc.statd failed to start
 * ERROR: cannot start nfs as rpc.statd would not start
