Are there any free NFS clients for Windows 7?

I have Windows 7 Professional, but the NFS Client for Windows is only included in the Enterprise and Ultimate editions.

I would like to connect some Windows machines to our NFS server so I can drop the Samba Server we are currently using.

Are there any free NFS clients for Windows 7?

I know there are some tools like ProNFS and axeNFS but they are not free.

Solution 1:

Check this open source project:

Nekodrive
https://github.com/nekoni/nekodrive

The target of this project is to implement NFS (Network File System v2/v3/v4.1) over the Dokan user file system for windows. This let you mount very easily an NFS export as a local windows drive. You don't need any NFS windows client to access the NFS remote export, you can just use microsoft explorer. The current version doesn't support NFS v4.1 yet.

Solution 2:

As long as I understand the question, you should be able to use Microsoft Windows Services for UNIX. You can get them here:
