[Bug 2062499] [NEW] nfs mount over VPN tunnel does not work

[Wang Xuancong]

Public bug reported:

nfs mount over VPN tunnel does not work while other nfs mount works.
I have physical network interface eth0 on 192.168.101.1, and OpenVPN tunnel tun0 on 20.8.0.1.

If I try to nfs mount over VPN, I get the following error:
```
root at wxc-dell:/# mount -v 20.8.0.1:/netboot/nfs /mnt/a
mount.nfs: timeout set for Fri Apr 19 13:27:51 2024
mount.nfs: trying text-based options 'vers=4.2,addr=20.8.0.1,clientaddr=20.8.0.1'
mount.nfs: mount(2): No such file or directory

mount.nfs: mount(2): Permission denied
mount.nfs: mounting 20.8.0.1:/netboot/nfs failed, reason given by server: No such file or directory
```

If I downgrade nfs-kernel-server from 2.6.1-1ubuntu1.2 to Debian
Bullseye's version (1.3.4-6), then everything works.
