	Does the C= NFS product work with AmigaDOS? What about the server
running on an A3000UX and the clients running on A500s and A2000s under
AmigaDOS? 

	thanks - jeff

YES.
This is exactly what the AS225 TCP/IP and NFS software was designed for.

It works great under AmigaDOS. There is no nfsd (nfs server) available at
this time so some other machine needs to actually do that work. An A3000
running Unix will work fine, just as any Sun, HP, etc. or other bsd/sys5
unix system.

The NFS product comes with a lot of other tcp/ip programs as well as
rlogin,rsh,ftp. They do have ftpd and rshd so you can transfer files
direct from one Amiga to another over ethernet using the ftp standard
protocol as well as run commands remotely on other Amigas.
