He said that Apollo wrote their NFS implementation from + the specifications given in the standard published by Sun, and indicated + that Sun's implementation doesn't match their own standard precisely. Why is that other vendors are capable of writing NFS implementation correctly? Has anyone tried file serving PCs off of Apollo NFS as is possible on Suns? Given that we may get an Iris anyday now (which has NFS) has anyone had any experiences with Apollo-Iris NFS?
