NFS is available for Apollos from Apollo.  It does have some problems
though.  The major problem we have is that you cannot mount a non-Apollo
NFS partition and expect everything to work as if it were an Apollo disk.
The reason for this (I believe) is problems with file types.  Our major
gripe with this is that we cannot execute programs that are on an NFS
partition on our VAX.
