Ken Adelman and Dave Kashtan previewed their lastest marvel at Connectathon in
Santa Clara, CA.  Their NFS server is currently available, implemented in the
VMS kernel, is read/write, and is very fast and robust.  I'm sure the same
will be true of their client when it becomes a product.  What we saw at
Connectathon was a beta (alpha?) version, so I don't know when they plan to
release it as a product.  The NFS server is an option with MultiNet.
MultiNet is VMS kernel based TCP/IP implementation for VAX/VMS.
