mounting NFS shares

[Steven Heimann]

Although this is probably not the answer you are looking for I have
recently started using sshfs wherever possible.  If you have ssh access
to the computer providing the nfs share I have found sshfs to be very
simple and reliable.  It would also seem to be secure across insecure
networks.  I am not sure about the throughput but it seems to be working
fine for me.
