InterCon's NFS/Share has always provided automatic CR<->LF translation for 
text files between the Macintosh and NFS server.

Wollongong's Pathway Client NFS does not provide automatic translation as of 
the version I have, but it does come with an application (NetText) that will 
read UNIX LF terminated text files for you.
