"nfsvers=3"/"vers=3" can only be used, AFAIK, on the client side,
either with mount or in fstab. nfsv4 won't be disabled on the server.
This could be enough for the OP though.
I've been meaning to look into you "RPCMOUNTDOPTS=--no-nfs-version 4"
suggestion but haven't had the time.
AFAIU, mountd isn't used for helping a client mount an nfsv4 export
(unlike nfsv3) but it is used for the export (which is why you don't
need to poke a hole in your firewall for mountd if you're using nfsv4
exclusively).
I wanted to set up a VM with your option above and see whether an
nfsv4 mount option exists (and fails) or whether it simply doesn't
exist. _MOST_ likely the latter but I'd like to see it to believe it.
On RHEL/Fedora systems, there's an "RPCNFSDARGS" for nfsd to be
launched with "--no-nfs-version 4".
