That's OK, they only support PROFS on the VM system. The magic words to ask for are: 5798-FAL: TCP/IP for VM 5798-FBJ: PROFS Extended Mail > P.S.

NFS is available for 5798-FAL as of this month. You need to order Feature 4059. It's a server only implmentation (if you know VM you'll understand why). They also have X clients now in FAL. IBM has also announced TCP/IP for MVS. Essentially, this is a port of the VM product. (Product code 5685-061). X again is included, and NFS is an added cost feature. -Ron
