[comp.protocols.tcp-ip] NFS across the Internet

droms@BKNLVMS.BITNET (04/01/88)

I'd like to hear from anyone who has successfully run NFS across the
Internet, or who can point me to references reporting the use of NFS
across the Internet.  By "across the Internet", I mean between sites
on separate LANs, managed by disjoint administrations.  Thanks...

Thanks to all who responded to my recent request for references to
experiences with NFS across the Internet.  I received about 5 replies,
all of which confirm Barry Shein's observation that "the concept is
not nearly so wild as [has been suggested]".

A summary of the replies is available on request.
