Yup, not cheap but it does work well.
For mounting in the other direction, you will need Novell's
LAN Workgroups 4.2 - It has some new utilities that allow Novell users
to have a UNIX drive as an NFS mounted partition. You see, the NFS product
above will not do that. It only mounts one way, unix -> Novell.
Novell NFS and FreeBSD will talk NFS quite happily, In fact, a large part
of the testing that we did on the latest version of NFS was done this way.
BTW you should grab bwnfs.tar.Z from freebsd.cdrom.com or preferably
one of it's mirrors. This is the public Domain Beame & Whiteside PCFS
server to run on the BSD box.
Good luck
