Second question: do you think that upgrading to version 4.0 could fix this issue, without dedicating too much time to this problem ?
Thanks, Ste
ADDED: I studied a bit and found the command should be:
sudo mount -t ceph 10.220.12.45:6789:/ /mnt/cephfs -o name=client.admin,secret=AQBexxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
but the problem is that the monitors are listening on the internal private network 192.168.110.0/24, and they are phisically separated. How can i solve this ?

cannot say upgrade to 4.0 will solve your particular issue, as even older versions do have nfs working correctly. i our tests we test upgrades from versions as early as 2.3 and we have no issues with nfs.
