We (at TGV) have been working on an NFS client for VAX/VMS and expect to
have an alpha release to selected sites shortly (we kind of got distracted
a bit by the 'quake).  This client will work in conjunction with our MultiNet
TCP/IP for VAX/VMS.  Given the kind of response we have gotten in talking to
people about NFS client for VAX/VMS I don't think it is the case that nobody
wants it.  It is just extremely difficult to do!

MultiNet TCP/IP for VAX/VMS has been shipping with NTP for over a year now.

For more information you can either contact me, or Desiree Champagne
