Well, the original poster wanted an NFS server, not NFS client which
is what ch_nfs is. In the AS225R2 beta there was such a thing,
although in a very beta form. It worked with AmiTCP using the
socket.library emulator. I don't know what is the current status of
this server now that there are two commercial versions of AS225R2.
