Hummingbird is a company, not a program. I didn't think Windows could
do NFS, or anything other than samba natively (M$ Windows : Batteries
Not Included :-)). Anyways, My dad has a Solaris box and an NT box at
work and said that they use one of Hummingbird's products (I forget
which one, but it isn't eXceed ;-)) to provide NFS access from
Windows.
