What you are talking about is a GatorBox.  But you can also use the FastPath 
with our NFS/Share software to do much of what you want.  We do not do AFP to 
NFS conversion, rather we do straight NFS across the board (or Kbox :-)).

I would have to agree, I don't know of anything that allows a Vax to read a Mac 
disk in the manner you wish.  I think that adding 3rd party HD's to the Vax has 
got to be a better long term solution as well.  Good luck.
