Yup, but you need an *additional* daemon to do mounts from
PCs: pcnfsd. Sun's pcnfsd compiled under Linux-0.97 and 0.98 for me
many months ago and worked just fine. I'm afraid I don't *have* this
source now, though.
P.S. I was doing mounts from PCs using FTP Software's PC/TCP for DOS
package and needed to have pcnfsd running on Suns and Linux
boxen in order to mount their filesystems. I assume you need
pcnfsd w/PC-NFS and any other PC-based NFS client package as
well. I may be wrong.
