There have been some discussions recently on how to share files between computers and how to use NAS.

So far in the discussions there seemed to be only smbfs as an solution. smbfs is now natively supported in current MorphOS versions, so it is easy to use.

For me smbfs is not a solution.

I want to use a Raspberry Pi as server and I have several MorphOS and Amiga OS 3 computers. I am using git and svn to share my code and configurations between these computers and additionally I want to have a shared Download folder.
I do not want to install samba on the Raspberry Pi as that would take additonal space and memory.
So NFS seems to be the best solution for me, especially as it runs directly in the linux kernel.

From old discussions here in this forum and from searching via google there seems not be a native client for MorphOS, but there is AmiTCP for the good old m68k which does also run on MorphOS.

The only issue I do have with the AmiTCP NFS client is the fact that Ambient does not really like it. The icon does not appear on Ambient. It does appear in "My MorphOS" but Ambient does not show any fiiles and folders.
With DOpus 4 I have the same issue.
DOpus 5, DosControl V6.0 and the shell do work fine.

Any ideas if there is some trick to fix this or is it necessary to modify the Ambient code?
Is the Ambient code on sourceforge still the one currently used in MorphOS 3.7?

I created an article on wordpress on how to setup a NFS client on MorphOS.

Any comments are highly welcome.
