Native NFS networking tools

Is there a set of NFS networking tools natively packaged with OS X similar to the Samba suite of tools?

TIA!

Not quite. NFS is the native networking system of MacOS X. Both Samba and AFP are add-ons.

I've put together some notes on NSF on OS X, since I rely heavily on it. The implementation is a bit different from most other unix flavors, but less weird than it used to be.
