Ah, yes, that now rings a bell.

The problem now maybe where to define RPCNFSDARGS?  The man page for nfs.conf doesn't list that
as an option.

On the client mount shows

f35ser:/home/djensen on /home/djensen type nfs4 (rw,relatime,vers=4.2,rsize=262144
,wsize=262144,namlen=255,soft,proto=tcp6,timeo=600,retrans=2,sec=sys,clientaddr=20
01:b030:112f:2::f351,local_lock=none,addr=2001:b030:112f:2::f355
