We have a number of Sun's running here making extensive use of NFS.  Now
a few others having IBM/RT's (the new model) would like to share in the
net and would like to get a version of NFS working on their machines under
4.2bsd.  Is there a version of NFS available for the RTs?

The IBM sales rep tells us that Brown has such a thing, but that something
called an NFS Source License is required to obtain this.  The Sun sales
rep says this would cost $1K per node which sounds too expensive.  Moreover,
the Brown Univ. code only works on the old version of the RT.  I would like
to hear from anyone who might have experience going this route.
