Is it correct to assume that there _is_ an nfsd?  It is possible that
it might be using the kernel NFS implementation, in which case things
might be a tad different...

I'd suggest that you restart NFS services "from scratch;" this likely
involves heading to /etc/rc.d/init.d, or something fairly similar
in name to that, and doing something like:
  "./nfsd restart"
for whatever services you see in the init area that are relevant.

I'm sure that COAS provides a way to ask to restart daemons; you
might want to make yourself a little familiar with it...
