Yes, we have a product which is currently shipping: Pathway Client/NFS.  
You can call the number below to get more information about it.

Pathway Client/NFS implements an NFS client directly on the Macintosh, 
allowing access to mount points on remote hosts as though they were Macintosh 
volumes.  This includes full support of the Macintosh Finder, as well as Desktop file support (icons, comments, etc.)  The product is built on top of Apple's MacTCP stack.

The product is a Control Panel device; it is installed on the Mac simply by 
dragging it to the System Folder.

Simultaneous access to multiple hosts/mount points is supported.  It will work 
with most Mac Ethernet cards, as well as most LocalTalk/Ethernet gateways.  
Sun's LOCKD is supported, and authentication is done via PCNFSD.

Hope this helps.
