That's OK, they only support PROFS on the VM system.   The magic words
to ask for are:
	5798-FAL:  TCP/IP for VM
	5798-FBJ:  PROFS Extended Mail

NFS is available for 5798-FAL as of this month.  You need to order Feature
4059.  It's a server only implmentation (if you know VM you'll understand
why).  They also have X clients now in FAL.

IBM has also announced TCP/IP for MVS.  Essentially, this is a port of
the VM product.  (Product code 5685-061).   X again is included, and NFS
is an added cost feature.
