According to Unix Review vol 9 no 2, "Dos-to-Unix connectivity, part II", PC/TCP by FTP Software (26 Princess St., Wakefield, MA 01880, (617) 246-0900, fax (617)246-0901), includes ftpsrv, an ftp server for the PC, which can allow other hosts to connect and initiate file trasnfers. I know nothing else about it, and I realize it's ftp, not nfs, but since what you ask is to "transfer files", maybe it will fit your needs? -- Alex Martelli - CAD.LAB s.p.a., v.
