I am getting the following error trying to mount a nfs export.

sudo mount 192.168.1.175:/mnt/nas /mnt/c/nas
mount.nfs: No such device

Any ideas on how to fix this?

The error indicates the nfs kernel modules are not loaded correctly and also verify the exported path "/mnt/nas" exists on sever "192.168.1.175" or not.
