Why do you need to change the clients? I needed to restart them - the NFS filehandles were different with knfsd - but nothing else needed to change.
The only thing I had to do on the clients was start rpc.statd to get file locking, which wasn't used before.
As far as I can tell, knfsd with HJ's patch set is now fit for use as a drop-in replacement for unfsd. It's just a shame it's so broken in Linus' kernels, that's all.
