Hi Andrew:

I think the problem is that fink writes its files as owned by root,  
and unless you do lots of non-default stuff with NFS, you can't write  
to an NFS-mounted directory.  (Try "sudo touch /nfs/path/to/foo").  I  
think there is a way to map "root" to a particular user on NFS, which  
is safer than enabling root to write.

Bill
