MacNFS allows you to mount NFS shares just like they were AFP or
AppleTalk shares in Classic Mac OS.
Serial: td56-s9pm-wocp-42m9-ezpr-c
Really useful if you want to re-enable file sharing between your old-
school Mac running Mac OS 7.6 through 9.2.2 and your brand new Mac
running OS X Mavericks (or any older version of Mac OS X for that
matter).
You will also need NFS Manager on your OS X machine to configure the
shares you will be connecting to.
NFS Manager can be found here, and it's shareware and still supported
by its developer:

## A small guide to get you started:
*Install MacNFS on your "Classic" machine
Use the full installer in the first download, or extract the archive
found in the second download and drop the file named "MacNFS" in your
extensions folder and reboot.
Now, if you go to the Apple menu and open the chooser, you should have
an icon named MacNFS. Goodie. Click it and it asks for a serial
number. Enter the one posted above.
*NFS Manager on your OS X/Intel machine
OSX already has NFS implemented, since it's a UNIX based operating
system (and NFS is the default file sharing protocol in any UNIX based
OS). What NFS Manager does is giving you a nice and Macish GUI for the
command line NFS stuff. What you need to do now is add a NFS share and
set some access rights.
This is pretty straight forward. Remember that you set access
privileges based on folder permissions in the OS.
I recommend creating a folder named say "Classic" and setting the
permissions on that folder to read & write for everyone. Then share
this folder using NFS Manager. This is probably the easiest way to do
it. You can then mount "Classic" as a guest from your OS 7-9 machine
and move/copy/rename files as you wish.
