Hi. I'm planning on attempting to implement background compression/
decompression in Unix on my NeXT. To do this, I will need access
to source code for nfs. (I believe I will have to slightly modify
nfsd).

I was pointed at 386bsd as a possible source. Unfortunately, it
seems that getting 386bsd is an all-or-nothing affair. Is there
any way I could get access to the relevant code? Is the code
even there to get?

If I'm successful, I`m sure it would be useful for people running
386bsd.

Thanks...
