A nice way to let Mac users play with an NFS server is with the GatorBox.

It's a LocalTalk/Ethernet bridge (like a Kinetics Fastpath) which makes
any NFS server appear like an AppleShare (AFP) server. Macs use the
AppleShare workstation software which comes with System 6.x.x.

They will be adding a card to the box to allow users to login by modem.

I have no affiliation with Cayman Systems (gatorbox manufactureers) but have
a file of twenty questions and answers about it. If there is interest,
I'll post it.

Cheers,

Geo
