CLARIFICATION (important enough to post. :)..
GatorShare is software that runs on a GatorBox router, not an actual UNIX
host (at least, this is what's detailed in an article in MacWorld August :)
Since the GatorBox is extremely intelligent, it just makes the link between
the Mac and NeXT, so the NeXT only has to know that it's an NFS host and 
the GatorBox does the rest (with some configuring on it, of course). I love
the GatorBox! :)
