This article is from the AmiTCP/IP FAQ, by Mike Meyer with numerous contributions by others.

6.7: What is NFS?

    

(From the Sun NFS documentation:) NFS is a network file system developed by Sun Microsystems, Inc. The Sun Network Filesystem (NFS) protocol provides transparent remote access to shared filesystems over local area networks. The NFS protocol is designed to be machine, operating system, network architecture, and transport protocol independent.

For a detailed description of NFS, consult a TCP/IP book.

The NFS Client by Carsten Heyl is included info the AmiTCP distribution. See the ch_nfs documentation in AmiTCP:help.

There is also an Amiga to Amiga NetFS implemetation that is included with AmiTCP. This is NOT NFS but lets the Amiga share other Amiga's Disk Drives.
