	I did a grep through the entire kernel source tree (386bsd + pk 2.3)
and did not spot any NFS_SERVER or NFSSERVER option.  Could someone post or 
Email me a COMPLETE list of all KERNEL Options that are available? or at
least tell me where to look?
        Is there also a XCLIENT option as well?  Since I am planning on
setting up my 386bsd box on a network connecting to a DOS based PC running
either DESQVIEWX or a Windows 3.1 XSERVER.  The 386bsd box will have to be
both a NFS server and a XClient.  Has anyone had any success with a similar
setup or just with running xclient programs on 386bsd from a non 386bsd
xserver?  Thanks for any help or just tell me that it will never work :)
