Nope. Choosing MS also means choosing MS support. But I guess we should
treat interoperability issues leniently. In any case, let us tell the
Windows users that MS support sucks so bad that to get decent support,
one has to go to Linux fora ;-)

To the OP: Yesterday I received the latest (Feb 04) SA Mag, along
with it came a complimentary MS SFU 3.5 CD. The description of the NFS
client of SFU says:

"Client for NFS allows Windows computers to access files and directories
that are exported from NFS file servers and requires no additional
software on Unix hosts... Accessing an NFS export is the same as accessing
a Windows share... (browse) using Windoes Explorer and can access NFS
exports by mapping them to a drive letter."

I personally have no use for SFU, so don't know how good it is. I hear it
was developed in MS's Hyderabad development center.
