I have the same question. Maybe the user-level stuff is not being
actively maintained?

However, since we couldn't find current versions of this stuff,
my colleagues and I patched nbd-server and the nbd kernel module
to fix a few bugs and to make them a little more robust. I'll
attach my versions of those files (which I think are derived from
Pavel's .14.tar.gz versions).

You'll want at least 2.4.4 (you'll probably want later than that for
other reasons anyway) -- I think before that NBD was badly broken.
