NFS client for Windows 7

Anonymous

I have upgraded from XP to Windows 7 Professional. I used Windows Services for Unix in XP but have been informed this is not available for Windows 7. I do not see a NFS Client in the Windows 7 Professional version. What options are there?

Nope - this is wrong - it is only available as a non-installed component on Enterprise versions of Windows 7. As you can see from this screenshot is NOT available on Professional:

Hello all,

Thank you for posting to the Microsoft Answers Forum.

Click here for the link to download installing Utilities and SDK for Subsystem for UNIX-based Applications

Applies To: Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2

This should be the link you were looking for.

Thanks,

Marilyn

As has been stated before, because you don't have Ultimate or Enterprise?

I can't find this "Services for NFS" anywhere in the "Turn Windows features on or off" dialog. Can anybody explain why?

Wow, this is the typical nonsense often found from MS answers. To all the users who helped everyone else muddle through - including those of us who realized the NFS services are NOT on our version of Windows 7 - thanks. :-)

I'm assuming "Marilyn" is some sort of bot-with-a-photo.
