dmesg spam "server requires stronger authentication"

Is there a way to get rid of this spam in my dmesg?

Code:
RPC: server isengard.loc requires stronger authentication.
RPC: server isengard.loc requires stronger authentication.
RPC: server isengard.loc requires stronger authentication.
RPC: server isengard.loc requires stronger authentication.
RPC: server isengard.loc requires stronger authentication.
RPC: server isengard.loc requires stronger authentication.
RPC: server isengard.loc requires stronger authentication.
RPC: server isengard.loc requires stronger authentication.

It makes it impossible to find real stuff. I'm guessing it has to do with NFS because I recently moved all my drives over to my new file server and use NFS. Can I just get rid of this error somehow?
 
Well that was retarded, I decided to reboot the server because I saw online that if you put vers=3 in fstab it fixes the issue, and it was not letting me umount anything because file system busy errors. Well now NOTHING mounts. I get this:

Code:
mount.nfs: mount to NFS server 'rpcbind' failed: RPC Error: Authentication error
mount.nfs: internal error

It worked before, why is it suddenly not working now?

New versions of Linux also suck at logging, it seems they got rid of lot of logs like /etc/secure. Everything is just blank. So I can't really check anything on the NFS server, there's no indication of anything anywhere. Why does NFS itself don't even have any logs? TBH NFS is a very terrible implimentation... wish there was something better. I guess there's Samba, but that is meant mostly for Windows.

Think I got it working, don't really know what I did. Restarted random services and stuff based on random findings on Google. I don't know WTF that was about... hopefully I don't have to reboot this server in a while now... I really need to find something better than NFS though. Maybe iSCSI, but that is not really a sharing protocol, it's only meant to share to one machine. NFS is a nice try, but its just such a terrible implimentation all around, including how it handles security and permissions. Samba does that slightly better, suppose I can just use that.
