The tool you need is nfs-utils, if you do a
# rpm -qi --provides nfs-utils
you will get output of which software it provides, and some info about
the package.
Most of the nfs service is handled by the kernel:
"Summary : NFS utlilities and supporting clients and daemons for the
kernel NFS server."
I hope this helps you one step further
