Use dselect to find package.  apt-get is useful if you know exactly what
to install. From root:

# dselect
 ... follow menu

Also to set up basic set up, use tasksel.

# dselect update
# tasksel

As for what you are looking for:

pn  nfs-server     <none>         (no description available)
pn  nfs-user-serve <none>         (no description available)
pn  nfsboot        <none>         (no description available)
pn  nfsbooted      <none>         (no description available)

So I have nfs-common and nfs-kernel-server installed on my woody.
