Sun's NFS is NOT a good Unix Networked Filesystem. They broke
some Unix semantics in the name of generality to the non-unix world.
Sun claims it to be a non-unix specific design.

What do you see as the major problems? "Considerable work" doesn't sound
right.

It seems to run with MS-DOS and VMS as far as I know. So, it's not
too Unix-specific.
